Should I get a .5? - 12.10.2008, 01:26 AM

I was thinking about getting a CRT .5, how do you guys like yours? Are they just as good for bashing as racing?

I have seen a lot of nice conversions out there and I would like to do one myself. What motor would you guys recommend? I have a mm so I don't need a new spedo. How long on average would a 8000mah lipo last just bashin around?

I was gonna dump all my money into my E-maxx but I found a great deal on a .5. How much money does it take to make a .5 electric?

Sorry for all the questions, I just need some opinions. Thanks!

I love the crt.5 as you can see mine in my avatar.....it is an amazing car on the track....mine uses an mm with 9l feigao geared 46/14 geared for about 40 mph it will go much faster if needed....I usually run mine on 3s maxamps 5000mah and it seems to run forever....as I stated it always amazes the other guys at the track with its maneuverability and acceleration....don't hesitate... its an awesome little car IMHO

Its pretty much based on the crt .5 but with afew upgrades.

People were saying the exhaust was always prone to dmg so they covered it. Gotta bigger shocks, PBS and something else i forgot.

Hey! im not selling you the thing....its just the latest.

all good in the hood tho! xD
