Well its fun, kinda slow seems to be at 25mph-30mph.
It will pull me on a skateboard at that speed. It doesn't want to stall and it runs for only 20-25 minutes.

It shore is perty though.

haha slow at 25-30!? we say like 10mph is fasttt. and only 20-25 minutes? that is pretty good run time. and pretty? only a mother...

sorry i had to contradict everything you said. i couldn't help it. here is what i would do to it if it were mine: First lose the bumper. if 25 mph is slow to you i'd say make it like molasses and you might get an hour run time. get some different tires like maybe some proline mashers might suit you. and lastly, cut the bottom off the chassis, mount the links higher, relocate the battery after it has lost its home and then it should be pretty close to competitive but seeing as there are no rock race competitions organized yet, you may be out of luck on that part...
