Sheesh, things to look forward to....  :faint:  I have 1 Stage 2 motor upgrade but 2 cars.  To keep them equal, I might install the Stage 2 motor on a Nissan Titan I have.  Don't know if it'll work as far as the gears go but I figure the little truck might need to go faster....


So... the 4 wheel drive kit makes the car faster?  :clueless:  I thought it would slow it down, at least on the straights?  I thought I read that at least on the trucks you lose some top end?  :dunno:

i dont have any trucks so i wouldnt know but it should go faster on the cars because instead of 2 wheels spinning you get all 4 spinning ...

check the little chart to see how you would like your stage 2 motor to work ... More torque or more speed.

my Camaro has 4 wheel drive, foam tires, & some special brakes i bought for it ...

My chally has the 4 wheel drive and the stage 2 motor ...

i like to have various upgrades on different cars ... wish i could find a truck or hummer....

if you run into any problems with the 4 wheel drive or the stage 2 motor let me know cuz i pretty much know the 2 kits from top to bottom and i ran into the same problem twice on the 4 wheel drive kit and 1 small problem on the stage 2 motor but it took me two days to figure out the small problem... so if you run into it let me know and ill help you out.   :cheers:

Thanks for the offer on the help!  :thumbsup:  We'lll see when I get a chance to install either kit.

Yep, I think the Target in my area ia now $1.07 for the Hot Wheels.   :dunno:

As far as the trucks I've seen them locally on craigslist.  I got my Titan new from Radio Shack when they were on cleance a couple of years ago for $20, the lowest price I have seen for a new XMOD.  They had a bunch of them and only the Titan was on clearance. 

Cool thing about getting these trucks used is that since they are only 1:28 scale, they really don't see much outdoor action therefore less abuse and dirt inflicted on these little RC trucks, unlike 1:10 scale RC trucks.

Secondly is that is you get them used, a lot of times they already have a lot of the hop up parts on them so you save some $$$.  :D

See this ad.  He put $100 of parts into his F-150 and is selling for $30.
