crawlers arent supposed to be nitro. This question has been answered so many times in other threads that im not answering it again.

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.

i think its a pretty good idea. just watch the clutch, you might burn it out.

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.
