@mrdilnoori they are all the same

[damanisdakila]

hey alishanmao does this rc car run faster than the lightning epx drift car i want to drift and i saw your other vid that your clutch got fried i dont want that and i like to go real fast on the streets

[alishanmao]

@damanisdakila go for brushless version its better

[damanisdakila]

@alishanmao alright man thanks i was gonna buy both of them but its too expensive nice videos man i remember watching your videos a long time ago when you barely had about 30 videos

[st7ng]

can you put a .18 (the vx-18 engine on this car?) it comes with the VX-16

[alishanmao]

@st7ng yup a bit of modification might needed

[st7ng]

@alishanmao yeah, i just bought a new vx16 engnie just to play on the safe side, my original vx16 runs strong but i didnt put after oil in it and it wasnt running for 2 months because of snow came, luckily it was a power type dust and could be wiped off with a cloth,

[bubba2521]

i just ordered that car today in green

[djbexfield]

i just orderd that car in blue

[viper2290]

is this better than the Redcat Racing Shockwave(buggy)?

[jthornley12]

You cant compare a On road car with a buggy

[rcdude747]

ya what is top speed

[djbexfield]

around 50 mph

i just orderd one in blue

[Naturepheonix]

What was the top speed?

[LatinJoker23]

Just bought the blue one lol now all i need to do is wait 4 it to get here lol

[Naturepheonix]

maybe I should upgrade the spur gear and the transmission gears to steel if I'm planning to add a 3.5 and up on that baby.

But will it not fit the engine mount?

and is it possible to buy metal gears for the transmission?

like gearbox?

[alishanmao]

no idea for metal gears of transmission, Spur gear can be found metal. NOt sure if it can take 3.5 Engine

[Naturepheonix]

is it possible to add a 3.0 cc or 3.5 cc on that engine mount?

or will it wreck everything?

[alishanmao]

3 cc should be possible

[Naturepheonix]

hay ali

My buggy's engine says "21 c"

on the side.

how many cc is that?

[alishanmao]

21 engines are usually 3.5cc

[Naturepheonix]

wow......

what does 21 actually stand for?

and how much would a 21 cost?

[arkiepoo]

how many cc is a 28 engine?

[alishanmao]

should be 4.67 cc?

[dempo5efc]

hey ali great vid man. i have been looking at this car but i live in the uk so im not sure about shipping please get back to me.

[alishanmao]

well yes thats a problem for now. but i can give you an email of a guy who ship to UK. email me at my emai addresses

[Naturepheonix]

i have a normal buggy and i want to buy a racing one

so I FOUND THIS ON THE WEBSITE!

[alishanmao]

This is one awesome on road car. Real fast

[Naturepheonix]

hay, why does your green str have Blue Rims?

i checked redcat web, it dosen't have blue Rims

[alishanmao]

Well I forgot to change the wheels hehehe. so blue rims

[Naturepheonix]

Oh LUCKY

they are cool rims i gotta say

[jthornley12]

Oh yeh arn't i stupid lol :D

[fastandfurioustokyo]

i am buying it

[alishanmao]

Nice Choice :D

[jthornley12]

Do you have 2 of these then or do you just have 2 different colour shells?? ;) Nice vid ali :D

[alishanmao]

I had two of these, one nitro with 2 different shells and one Electric with one shell. :) Cheers

[fastandfurioustokyo]

do they ship in US. i want one

[alishanmao]

yes, of course. RedCat Racing USA my man ;)

[fpvgtking]

i had those rims on my car but they broke so easly. i had them for 2 days and they broke from the low profile tyres, by scraping while turning and drifting lol. but its like the first time ali u got a video out which is not in a buggy, truggy or truck lol

[alishanmao]

Well later I will try to post more vids of on road. At the moment, more off road and desert trucks are here :) and hey guess what that lethal Twin li poly electric buggy platform is now in my hands. Wait for vids ;) BackDraft 8E *the lethal buggy, AfterShock 3.0 and 8E are here ;)

[MoRRisoNRisiN]

it wont tune properly when its not broken in youll have to give it gas somtimes to keep the car running or just turn the idle screw untill your idle is high enough to keep the car running

[alishanmao]

well if you don't break in the engine. your engine won't perform, Won't start or get damaged. You probably need to see if you can break it in now. But most chances are you need a new engine now

[wwwwwoooeeee]

china has some nice places to ride a car dude!

[alishanmao]

Sure it does My Man :D

[richardallanjoseph]
