Looks good Mike, wish i still had mine (it's resting in Ballers museum). However, I still have a Buggy Champ re-re collecting dust. Maybe I should get it dirty. |

About time you whipper-snappers learned about Gen 1.5 RC's... Suspension sucked, mechanical speed controllers going China Syndrome, AM radios with 30 ft range, oh and water...forget about it. A Sand Scorcher was my first RC, I remember replacing every aluminum part with nylon, then converting it to 4 wheel drive. Damn, I wish I kept it. |

Yup, took quite a while to wash the gay off... The 4wd conversion was primitive to say the least, I've been watching ebay for years trying to get my hands on another one. The only one I've seen went for $2k. | |

Dude that 4wd drive conversion is crazy!! It would be awesome if someone made an updated set up.
