GTA's new Truggy. :) - Thirdgen89GTA - 10-01-2006

Bought it from NitroNuisance, the truck is in premo shape, beautiful very clean. The usually chassis scratches, but everything else is in great shape.

Jammin CRT w/picco .27 and I think a tuned pipe, not sure. looks like the stock one. Either way, it moves pretty good. Starts and run easy and pretty quick.

There are a few upgrades I wanna get for it, the CNC chassis braces for one, the stock plastic ones flex a bit too much for my liking. And I will probably put a pipe on it to help that picco breath a bit better. But its great, pretty quick, and fun to drive. Already did a few back flips with it. Smile

Had a blast with it. My Jammin buggy was a let down, the new OS .30 has so much compression I couldn't get the roto start to turn it over. And the flywheel is too small to work on a bump box. So I have to yank it out, then drop the pullstart back on till its loose enough to get the roto to turn it, even with the glow plug loosened it couldn't turn the motor over.

I need to get a larger flywheel on there and covert to a bump box.

Nice truck!

Clean up those cooling holes though, or that body won't last long. Smile

You can't see it but the body is cut in half on one side of the truck, no way to fix it cept for a new body.

I'll probably end up buying the Proline CP2.0 body and painting that instead. But for now this body actually stays together pretty good when its running, and its very easy to get to the pullstart with the body on. Harder to fill the tank though.

Now i need to hit LH to have some fun with it. ^_^

Sweet! I think Gene was out there with the camcorder, I wonder if he has any vids worth sharing. I vow to hit the ramp full bore as soon as i learn to keep that sucker straight when stomping on the throttle.
