Strange how the LS10 came and went like it did ? I guess I'm a little behind to, because I bought mine new in Dec and posted pictures at Nitrokillers and received little to zero response. I guess thats why I got it so cheap ? I only paid 169.00 new and sold everything Nitro related and it paid for my RCM mount,ofna shocks,5Kmah-3s lipo from TrueRC and the Turnigy motor. Nice cheap build ! When I first got it together I plopped in a 4s and sqeezed 68mph out of it with the 4600kv motor with conservative gearing. But due to weight and wanting to run primarly offroad the lower kv motor was much better suited. I can run pack after pack with zero heat issues. Top speed is only about 30mph but plenty for bashing on rough terrain. I've ben lucky,only broke a couple axle carriers so far but there the weak point anyway. If I drove it a lot more I'd look into modifying something but I have 10 others to drive and beat the snot out of.

Clean ol' pony ya got there, I restored classic Stangs for several years. Nice cars to work on,simple and well built except the cowl.
