I've got a 10 yr old Megatech razor XT that has about a quart of fuel thru it. I am the second owner and the car was just sitting in a box. So why not drop a modded picco in it. I used the stock savage motor mount as the megatech one was to small. All in all this mod went very well. I will be making a new chassis thats thicker as this one flexes to much. I did order some RS4 evo 3 diffs to drop in, plus the drive train is already all metal. It is also a 2spd but idk what the teeth count is. Out of the box its supposed to do 55mph (ha manufacture claim lol) I also ordered some Xceed enneti foam wheels as its probably going to trash them quickly lol

here some pics and a quick vid showing it actually works

Think I woulf use a different screw underneath there befire that grinds the head off on the pavement
Looks good
 
I am not sure that would matter too much....not like it will go long before it shells the whole driveline.... but that is half the fun...lol. I did the same thing with a 1/10 4x4 buggy and a Picco Max .26. It went about 6 tanks before the driveline exploded. It caught good traction and ant was all she wrote. But it was stupid funny to watch.
 
Tearin them up is the fun part, ole lady can't understand that though lol.
Me an stepson drove the revo, s30 and mini 8 today and only one we didn't break was revo.
mondays usually mean Hobby store trips around here.

Your rig looks wicked with that big motor on it.
 
Thanks guys, I was bored waiting for the weather to clear to run my savage so I dropped the picco in the car lol. If it blows up the drive train so be it. Your both right thats part of the fun
