Sorry w00d, I don't own one, I was just posting it as I had not seen it before. I don't own any gas or nitro RC models, all my stuff is electric. They keep making RC models bigger. I guess next is 1/4 scale, then 1/3 scale and 1/2 scale. Maybe the holy grail is 1/1 scale? ...or 2/1 scale?
No ... I'm hoping to get my brother and is boy interested. It's built and ready to go (somewhat) just need some help with the grunt work ...
I hope you can make some video when you run it. I've only see one run once in Medford, Oregon at a hobby shop/race track that is now closed. The guy had a VW Bug body on his and it was a beast. Funny to see something that big jump!
