I know you guy don't like Smartech, But I love mine. And it is fast.


Let me know what you think!
 
How long have you had it? Is it durable? Many tuning options? How's the engine?
 
had it about a month now almost a 1/2 gallon thru it. Broke a arm Hit a car. Servos are a little weak. Tunning it has the high low and idle screws. Tunning is not to bad But again this is my 1st car. Engine is strong screams down the road about 55 60mph. Getting my friend who a cop this weekend to clock it just to make sure.
 
Don't be suprised if it doesn't go that fast. Most manufacturers claims of top speed are from the best pass they've ever done on way leaned out engines, probably going downhill. I have no facts to back this up, it's just my personal opinion.
 
Pretty cool ride you got there. Do it come in other body styles?
Like Ford or Dodge? Also whats under the hood?

Dude it's not that we don't like smartech but for me honestly it would have to be parts availability. Ya never know this could be the company to reckon with in the future. I doubt it but ya never know. You could go the LHS in a couple of months and these could the parts they carry. It looks like a somewhat decent kit. How is parts availability???
 
Parts: only found stock parts from excel hobby takes about 3 days to get here. I was told that some hpi parts might fit. ( I dont know for sure, my LHS does not carry many hpi parts) The body shown is an hpi 200mm Body. Stock body is to stiff and shatters easy. And under the hood (actually bed linner) is the stock .15cxp slide carb and over sized exhaust. Speed wise, Fast enough to worry me for now. Find out for sure hopefully this weekend.
 
Yes it is. Scroll down and go to spare parts. They have to whole setup and takes about 3 days to receive it.
