Looks pretty cool. I'm thinking of nabbing one soon to keep my RC jones going through the winter...
 
Wow for that kind of price you can't go wrong. I was also thinking about getting a micro for some winter entertainment.
 
There is an $85 chassis you can get to make 55 mph possible. :D I wouldn't do that though if I had only one car.

Ill give you a chance to change your mind on your last post before I start giving you a hard time.

Could you please explain just how changing a chassis will increase the speed of a Micro from around 18 mph to 55mph?

Thanks in advance

I can't wait to :read: this one.
 
I think he meant the chassis upgrade will allow you to fit a 540 motor in it. If you do that you will need to upgrade just about every other part on the vehicle to make it strong enough to handel the motor and speed it brings you. My Micro does around 30mph (don't have a speed gun so I did the math on a 100ft trap) and I broke the steering bar, plastic axels, and blew out my front diff. Good choice on the Micro SiletGT. I am really enjoying mine.

No,
I think you know your a kitten killer.
Your spared on this one.

Ill save myself for someone who is truly an ignoramus.
 
Damn you, SHHH!!! Ruining my plans with Eddy. :boxing:

With a special upgraded chassis 55 mph is possible. Possible if you get a 540 motor along with it.
 
:boxing: ESC, Batts, mounts for the can, can fins, ball dif, front bones, and whatever else I forgot to list. Around $300.00-$400.00 in upgrades. :boxing:

KITTEN KILLER ! :D
 
Ed is right on that one. If I got that chassis I couldnt just throw in a 540, you would need to upgrade EVERYTHING ELSE! as it is small and plastic and a 540 would make it as fast if not faster than a 1/10 touring.
 
Like I said with a upgraded chassis 55 mph is possible :trout:

Kitten Killer :p:

But it will !

Please someone impregnate my cat. Were running out of kittens.
 
I never said the chassis was the only thing you had to buy. I said it can make 55 mph possible. Possible with the upgrades neccesary.

Here we go, feel free to add this to the list of smilies. I sure it will be used often. I was thinking of you when I made this Eddy. Feel proud :smart:

BTW: Yes, The edges are tranparent.
