anyone played with the Cen genesis .46

[3.3maxx]

i was doing some research last night on different M/T's and found this Cen Genesis with a .46 5hp. it kind of reminds me of the Savage but beefier. i am just wondering if any has any experience with this things.
a friend is in the market to step in to nitro, he currently has a emaxx. so i sent him the link and it looks like a pretty good buy to me, but then again i am fairly new to this sport.
so any info or experience would be greatly appreciated

From what i remember they were big, heavy, sluggish, very little upgrade's and little tuning options.
IMO I think your friend would be much happier with the Savage. Nothing is stronger out of the box.
Plus the Savage is so popular that help and upgrades are plentiful

that is what i was reading on the older models as well. supposedly the new LE model with the 5hp .46 is pretty fast. even it if weighs 17lbs is has double the power of the 3.3 maxx i drive and mine will do wheelies at almost any speed. can't imagine something with that much power would be sluggish.
but then again i have not had a chance to witness one nor drive one myself.
