I just ordered one from Tower yesterday. So is this an upgrade kit? Where did you get it? How much$$ ?

Looks much better

New arrival maybe costs around 100 dollars in the middle ten days of February in RC Channel

I actually thought the song was kinda cool. I think you should have worked on the natural sound though, those camera glitch noises were really, really annoying. LIke worse than nails on a chalkboard, it almost made the video unwatchable.

As for the conversion, for me part of the charm of the old car is it's swing axle. I don't see $100 worth of performance improvements in that video, but that's just me. The aluminum wheels on the RC Channel site look really nice, I might have to order a set of those.

Well i think it looks really cool and realistic.

I will be buying a buggy champ and will be purchasing a suspension kit from Rc Channel.

After owning there Hot Shot Metal arm kit and shocks i got to say its a top quality product.

When will this be out as its not listed on your site.????

Thanks.
Mark.

I assume that it not only has the suspension upgrades, but also a ball diff?

That stock blue one had an awfully wide turning circle...
