The SS's have a problem with the shocks, plastic eye on the bottom of the shock shafts snap if you try to jump it like a 1/8th scale, other than that they are a pretty durable machine. Check out Phatdad shock shaft replacements, backorderd right now. I never had a problem since!

Well my MCD made it... on monday. Sorry no pics yet, too busy drooling over it! I've got the motor mounted up, trying to figure out what I'm going to run as a pipe for the time being... waiting for GBE to make a pipe for it.

Will try and get some pics up tommorow
