The 8t will always be superior to the muggy on the track. ALWAYS. So if your trying to out do it, don't waste your money. If you just want a great do everything basher/racer,t hen it's perfect if you get a new chassis and bracing (depending on which chassis) as they have serious tweak problems stock when you jump them.

For racing you may want some alloy knuckles and rpm a-arms too. You'll find them under LST

yea i didnt think it would be better than the 8ight-t on the track but it was somthing diff to race but ill prolly just build it for speed/bashing

hi bdebde, just wondering what motor is that(the purple motor)???

I read in an Adam Drake interview he runs the plastic RTR shock bodies on his Muggy to save 400 gms (almost 1 lb.) in weight.

Which one & where? Copy & paste the shortcut to the picture....

he may be thinking of Haldir's motor on post #12. Its a feigao XL size.

Great vids bdebde, the truck has gobs of power. cool dog too.

I don't have any purple motors, unless this looks purple in this picture

This is a Plettenberg Big Maxximum, actually blue (bad camera-phone pic).

As rschoi_75 said, the post by Haldir shows a Fiegao XL motor, which is purple.

Man, those must be HEAVY shocks :gasp:

With the exception of the purple zip-tie, that looks so factory its unreal (get some nice HD velcro, works like a charm). Definately got plenty of speed and power, and smooth through out. Got any more topless shots from a few different angles? I love that shell, very..... green :D

What happened to the Pletty? I would love to know how the MMM runs it.

What's that body?

Well, I had given up on the pletty because the mgm had issues with it. But I plan on trying the MMM with the pletty when my MMM gets back from repair.

It is a Jconcepts revo tango body

Looks good! Hows the MMM?

thanks bdebde!
