You've added them now... My bad <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Sorry forgot to press the add attachment button, but its there now, they are a 1/18th scale monster truck power by an nitro engine, there are lots of upgrades for them to make them go quicker, handle better an all that, you can use them just to bash around or to race. I've made mine jump over me a few times at the local skate ramps. xr6demon said: ive had mine for about 9 months and u can do anything with them and they wont brake. heres a picture of mine.

I like your truck, any mods?

Member 192 Member For: 21y 4m 11d Location: Melbourne Posted 08/12/04 12:12 AM Share Posted 08/12/04 12:12 AM Looks great, I remember seeing something like them demonstrated at a Monster Truck show in Melbourne years ago !What exactly is a nitro engine ? Is that one of the small petrol engines, or is it some fancy electric thing ?And the important question, what would it cost to get me one of 'em ? I think I could become addicted to something like that too ! :lol: Pretzel Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/14418-check-out-my-current-addiction/#findComment-195446 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had all the exhaust removed. Went nearly twice as fast as usual.
