Heres the deal my neighbors moved to America 2 years ago from Mexico and they are just facinated when I'm bashing around the yard. The other day the dad asked where he could get a nitro rc. I have talked a lot and narrowed there selection down to a nitro sport or nitro stampede. I we figured it would be good for a beginer vehicle and beginer engine the pro .15. I discussed the 2.5 upgrade once they are used to nitro rc's. So heres the problem I have never drove a nitro sport or stampede the closest thing to them is my Nitro Rustler and I dont know witch would be a better choice for them. They are not hard basheres just a father & son who would take it around the yard and driveway maybe a couple jumps here or there.


SO WHAT DO YOU THINK THEY SHOULD GO WITH A

NITRO SPORT
NITRO STAMPEDE
OTHERES?
 
Thats what I was thinking Matt. I just had a talk with the dad and he said he wants the stampede. So now we are all going down to hobbytownusa thursday to pick up a new 'pede. That boy is goning to have a big grin on his face when he gets of the bus.:) I just hope he can wait to break it in, its to cold and too much snow.
 
This would be a good time to show them all about their new rig. Seal the engine, add locktite where needed, make sure the linkage is set correctly, ect...
 
I explained to him most of the basic stuff also showed him how to rebuild shocks. Picked up fuel bottle, batteries, glow plugs, and a 2.5r that I'm going to save and it will be a gift when the pro .15 is no more;)
