definetly looks mean as hell. I would think a mad force would be better tho because with that three speed tranny it would have to have a low first gear.

He is not asking a question! So there is nothing for you to answer. He his just showing us is nitro crawler. NO a nitro is not going to perform as good as an electric but noone said crawlers can't be nitro.

Looks good. Lets see some video of it if possible. thanks

Call it a rock racer rather than rock crawler. The racers just go freakin balls-to-the-wall and beat the living shat out of their stuff, which is pretty much what everybody except the pro-racers do with their nitro monster trucks, go ballstothewall and beat the shat out of their stuff, build it to hold up and hope it doesn't break.

I don't see any Questions. If he wants nitro, it's his truck. You need not explain why he's not supposed to .
