Sounds like they did a good job of fixing some of the problems... I can't wait to see that in action.

Sounds like the Rim/tire upgrades are going to be limited to Losi parts for a while. With so many different Wheel/Tire combos out there, why did they go to 20mm? IMO, they should have stuck to the 14mm, or went 23mm.

Does it still have the Hi/Low ratio trans, or just forward/reverse? You can increase the performance a LOT by pulling the reverse and Low gear.

Overall, I think you will like the truck. Keep an eye on lstcentral.com for some tips and upgrades. There's a few guys there that can offer some real good help if needed with the LST.
