yeah but it can't go as fast and handle like a little race car because its a MT. I really like the buggies but the only place to really run those are the tracks. I thought of another idea, if I make enough money by the sell of one I will do a few more mods on mine and get my son a better truck so that he can keep up with me on climbing and around the house a little better. I don't think a 4yo is ready for a nitro no matter how I tune it down so I will look at a decent size electric for him. I'll pass his truck down to my littler one (under 2yo) who obviously has an interest in it as well and is starting to play with the remote. My 4yo has done that since he was less than 2yo and now drives pretty well considering his equipment and age. that sounds like a better deal to me.
