I use VP/AT racing fuel. 20% nitro and 14% oil.
See what brand of fuel your hobby shop sells and let us know so we can point you in the right direction.
No shops will be open today, and maybe not open tomorrow. Depends on how big the shop is as they might not be open until new year? Im really not sure.

Hi,
Very interested in these buggies you have for sale, but i am a complete novice.
What do i need to know about these things before i buy one?
What sort f mantenace is required / care?
How much does the fuel cost and how long will it last?
Anything else you can think of or any resources that you know of on the net that i should read up on before buying?
Also - whats the postal cost to Sydney?
Thanks for your help
Keith

The Buggies are faster, but not as strong as the monster trucks. The Monster Trucks have spring loaded bumpers on both front and rear and they will withstand alot of hard hits. The buggies will break the front arms the same as the picture above when in a decent crash, which is only $10 a pair to replace. I always recommend that people buy a few of these if they drive them near gutters or anything solid. My cousin who is 14 got a monster truck for his birthday back in November and he jumps it about 1.5 metres in the air over his front fence and it just rolls end over end and he still hasn't broken anything as yet.

umm...not really.lower centre of gravity and for the use of a bump box.thats it.all the other ones you said are not correct :)
I have received another shipment of cars, all buggies are sold but I have 2 moster trucks available, I will put some more detailed pictures of them up today.
i brought one off these cars they brake so easy i ran over the hose at speed and the bottom screws riped out of the ball joint how about you reply to pm trev.
PM Replied to, sorry for delay, I read your PM and thought I replied to it. Next time try communicating through email cos you bought your car of ebay not this site. All replacement parts are available so let me know the part number, I have not had a problem like you described before so I will send parts for free because it must be a factory fault.
hey mate if you can do me a purple one (as pictured) delivered for 319.00 plus an extra 25.00 for the starter kit i will take one for sure. preferably asap. cheers... ryan
