that is intensely cheap! nice looking thing too, bet it moves. i'll never understand why they leave the gearbox teeth exposed on the bottom like that..... the flywheel is for a bump starter but why leave the gearbox exposed?

haha these things rock!. i have one(different brand) and omg i started taking it to the remote control car track, i got bored of that and now i use it at the bmx track next door lmao! deadset mine can clear a huge set of doubles probably 4m apart and 1m high. ive broken every bone in its poor body and it now has a mostly steel chassis lmao! you have just inspired me to build a new chassis and break some records haha. ps i have jumped a car aswell haha

Yeah they certainly have some go in em, Not sure why the gearbox is uncovered at the bottom but it has a top cover. I'm just constructing a price list at the moment for parts and there are some tuff upgrades available like aluminium steering rods, stronger drive shafts, even stronger rear wing mounts so that jumping won't cause too much damage.
