You always need a couple of spare bodies. One for fast tracks and one for rough use. We're still talking about the truck here, right?

If you do run it, junk the AA holder and get the 7.2v pack. The AA's ran down in about 15-20 of running and then it was just painfully slow. Just changing that battery made it a whole lot more fun to drive. But it's still not enough zip so we're looking into the Trinity Mass Termination motor. For $25 it's a quick upgrade that works with the stock Rx/ESC. We'll let you know how it works out.

It's a 6 cell pack of 2/3AA's (I think, and if I'm wrong I'm sure I'll be corrected in just a minute or two). It puts out 7.2volts with 1100mah capacity. There are others with more capacity avaliable, as well.

Yup that is correct. And the packs last a good 15- 20 minutes.
