Its not a very strong motor, the 50mph they list on the box is misleading. But my Force 26 took a hit and kept going. From chips in the combustion chamber (from the factory) a score in the liner you could dig your nail into, and a burnt to hell and back piston it kept on going.

When you post near the bottom of the page there is an option to "Manage Attachments" there you can attach pictures to the post. Works like email.

Will be ordering new buggy..... - 02-21-2007, 03:59 PM

Will be ordering a new/first nitro buggy this week.....but have held off out of concern about places to bash. Thanks to this site, I have found that there are many places near my home. (Elgin BMX and Busse Woods) Is there a way to get directly informed of events including Busse bashes and other bash events? Spring is coming and hopefully in a week or so I will have the new buggy broken in and an itch to bash will take over.

Ordered it.... - 02-22-2007, 12:34 PM

It does not look like I will be out there this weekend to bash....but the buggy is ordered, and should arrive by the middle to end of next week. I look forward to breaking it in, then playing out at Busse in a few weeks.

it's cool to just go hang out with the guys and get a feel for everything even if you don't have an RC.
