I just found out my brother that's in the military. works at a RC shop. so he has sum dude that only builds maisto rc cars and "cpmpetes" vs axials, traxxas, losi, team assoc. and wins. he said the maisto only sucks cuz u break it you gotta buy new frame. vs the hobby grades you fix. he said w/e its 30 bucks. so I guess im supposed to see my bro this weekend and he is gonna get me this guys info. they do rc truck pulls, drag race, mud bog, and then a "tank trap"!!!! at his work. so I guess ill see whats up when he is in town this weekend. idc if it looks like a jeep as long as it performs as well as a better one. why put 100 in this when for 250 I can buy a good one...

Just doesn't appeal to me. They were fun when I was a kid, but now I have the adult version sitting in my driveway. I'd rather spend money on getting to the trail or upgrading the XJ. To each their own I suppose.
