yeh, i was surprised when I drove it how well it handled. I spent a long time fine tuning the suspension and weight distribution but i'd forgotten all about that as its been so long. if it gets sideways you can power slide it or add opposite lock to catch it which feels odd with such a big truck.

It actually stopped raining long enough for me to get outside! Which I was over the moon about having spent the previous day re building the clutch and fitting a new spur gear (not easy, it needs turning down on a lathe to fit).

Much better on these cells (ib4200's) more than enough power really, only problem was my gear came loose :(

note 4wd drifts and slides, that was 1 minute of pure fun.
