holy sh*t, a plastic carb? thats crazy, mine is one of the cheaper chinese ones, but its not THAT cheap, it has a dell orto carb(which i have ported) and good disk brakes. I've also upgraded to stiffer clutch springs to help it get off the line a lil faster. Its a pretty fun toy, I would say equal to my r/c. But it can be painful if you're not careful:seeing_stars: . Its in pieces right now, but I should have it back together tomorrow sometime and I'll get some pics on here.
