Now that I got this out again it has me thinking. Do I finally give it a birthday or keep it POS for nostalgia?

Hmmm, GRT maybe ? :mrgreen:

What are those humps in the front? My body is completely flat there. I thought there was only one variant for GH II and the other for Mad Bull (third picture).

I assumed that a 12V mattress pump motor cancels out the Grasshopper bonus. Let's wait and see how this develops...

I think the solid rear axle and floppy front swing arm suspension makes them dead ringers for this type of poll. Grasshoppers, hornets, midnight pumpkin, lunchbox and all that are alike. The level of use and abuse only makes them more competitive for the win!
Old school racing all the way!

We might have to outlaw Grasshoppers and Hornets in the future because of their competitive advantage. I'm just saying that though because I don't think that's ever been said before in the history of RC. :lol:

The Grasshopper really should have been named the Cockroach with how much abuse they can endure!

The "WINNERS" are RC10th and GrePo! Tied for best junkers of June! However, that truck seems to be striving for a higher level of greatness now: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=50921
The Hopper? I feel like it's going to continue to own its POS-ness. :lol:

You're right. Just like the other poll winning machines in my hall of fame, the Hopper will forever be an untouchable part of my personal “Big Three” :lol:
