weird this car has no set up guides or tuning paper work like the 720 came with, it doesnt even tell you witch diff lube goes where. Just a manuel and stickers...That will all be in the 2010 upgrade 733 kit...lol

[haddow]

fuel tank aside it is still a kick ass car

[gotnitro]

send your order # and a picture of the tank and they will send you a new one. New ones will be out in around 10 days.
