Love love love this buggy. Love it. I'm running mamba monster, castle 2200kV, maxamps 6s 5250mah lipo and a high torque digital brushless futaba steering servo. I don't think it gets much better than that. I'm brand new to 1/8 scale in general and new to brushless as well. It is so much fun. Everywhere I take my buggy, people stop what they are doing and watch it fly (silently, ha ha) across the park. Link to pics below:

This looks like an awesome car, i would totally buy this if i did not already have a Losi 8ight Tekno RC brushless buggy.

There is a video on youtube of Ryan Mayfield racing one of these and its very smooth, his fastest lap time was faster with this then with his gas buggy they said by over 1 second.

So nice never having to mess with afterun oil and stale fuel, get the Monster Mamba combo with the 2200kv motor and a good 4S lipo 5000mah battery and you be dialed.
