I started with my 1st RC being a lunchbox. I even raced it back then oval and road course against monster beetles and blackfoots. It did great. Bearings made a HUGE difference with it. I had taken out the 9 or 10 tooth pinion it came with and installed I think an 18 which made a huge speed difference but it did do wheelie galore stock.

The Pumpkin is on the lunchbox chassis... BEARINGS, make a huge difference in this vehicle. Put a fairly torquey 540 stock motor Green machine 3's are perfect and they have just the right speed to wheely mix. Think about it being a hard body when you take it down stairs they tend to crack in half!!!
