| New Owner!
Well I'm killing time here waiting for my 3 hour initial charge time to finish on my new Red MRC. (I've heard the red ones climb the best ;)) never done any crawling or even any real RCing before so this will be my first introduction. We'll see if the bug bites me as much as it's bitten most of you. I hope not because I don't think I could afford it. |

Congrats on the new crack addiction... err... I mean new toy. It seems innocent at first, then you see and notice all the cool things that can be done with these little guys. And then it's too late... your hooked. |

If you like your MRC after the first drive you're going to have to pick up a quick charger! You can get the Duratrax Pirannha for about $50 and it's a great little charger. If you plan on going LiPo this charger won't do, though. A spare battery pack also wouldn't hurt. You'll have fun with it. They're fun to drive and it's so cool to watch them struggle to climb and see the suspension articulate. |

yes the red ones do crawl better...even after you get a new body Definatley check out the free and cheap mods. You're gonna need to do them go get that bad boy crawling better right away. In fact that's a good way to kill some time while you are waiting for the battery to charge |
