Just a note to people. The buggy actually broke no parts while jumping of the BMX track. It easily land 10ft drops onto flats (asq the this was so quick it just cleared the landing ramp). It only broke when i ran it into these bolts protruding from the ground which i didnt see, which i presume they attatch something there when they BMX's race. The bolt hit the A-arm directly causing it to break. So for $300, your getting something qiet alright that can withstand heaps

Billy its normal when you run fuel with high oil content.(anything thats pre mixed really) the oil doesnt really burn.

Billymako - What % fuel, nitro and metho are you using? Also, it could possibly be that you are running it too rich?

So that would be the only problem? The motor sounds good but just spits out oil. Is a Thundertiger TS-4n pro any good? What fuel should i use and hopw much is a service and new tyres etc, is there a website with prices?

What fuel should i use and hopw much is a service and new tyres etc, is there a website with prices? that and it might be a bit rich but the oil content is where its at.thundertigers are good for the money. like everything,it all comes down to dollars. can you afford a hyundai or a ferarri. you'll need to go to a hobbie shop to get it tunned,or look at a local radio controlled car club in your area,someone there will help you out with your questions and local suppliers.
