At the last vintage meet held at Ryde our good frind Paul Mallos ran his Radiant with some ballistic motor. It was almost criminal how much abuse that poor little nugget was coping-

Paul would send it sky high over the big table top but managed to keep it going most of the day long.
I run a Pro Radiant/Boost which runs the same diffs and is also chain drive and i was suprised to see the car handle a 12 turn double with ease. I love my car as im sure you do yours, well done!

That sounds like it was a fun day, though I don't think I could bring myself to beat on my AYK buggies. I have a decent size collection AYK 566b, radiant pro, radiants, side winders, gators, buffalo's, bobcats,boxers, but I am still on the hunt for a viper and shuttle
