Default My Exceed Nitro Buggy

I know its nothing fancy or anything, but it is my first Nitro car. I've had it for about 2 months now...and haven't broken it yet! Its a nice little buggy, and sure gets around in the grass pretty good. Haven't had a chance to take to it a track yet, cause there are none close to where I live. (Closest one is an hour a way.)

I am still trying to get the suspension right....it bottoms out like crazy. Need to test it.

The Police clocked it at 38 mph. Not super fast but fast enough for me.

(I think the pictures are the right size...)







The Buggy is gonna eat my Barricade!!! Oh NOES!!!

lol, did you get a ticket? that's what i'm worried about in my area... police impounded a kid's pocket rocket and gave him a $250 ticket for speeding, endangering the lives of minors (his 11 year old brother was skitching when they caught him), and having no head/taillights. heck i could get two of those infractions with that buggy (wonder if they'd impound it, lol).

I got the same kind, but mine is the blue and black one, the beginner one.

These are pretty cool ,and fast for the price that I bought mine at, mine was $99.99 on NitroRCX.

If I were you, I would get another pullstart for that buggy, because my pullstart string ripped, and I havent gotten a new one yet. I'm planning on getting a electric starter for mine.

Glad you like it, any video's of you driving it.

I hate how the nitro fuel has gone up so much.

Yeah I used to run Trinity 20% in my Nitro Pede and it was $22.99. Now I switched to Traxxas because the engine was a little finicky with Trinity and Traxxas 20% went from $25.99 to $31.99! But the Traxxas is better on the engine and it ran a lot better yesterday.

Man, sorry I haven't replied to any of these!...I was not subscribed to it for some reason.

Xmodracer - Its a one speed

Snowboi - Yours was only 99.99?! Mine was like 119.99....
I like it a lot....haven't ran it in a while, need to get some oil for the engine.
Yea nitro fuel is expensive....I use Blue Thunder....last time I got a gallon it was $21.99 plus tax.

I don't know if it is running right atm....I'll be running it and it will seem like its out of gas and just shut off, but when I go to get it, there is still half a tank of gas in it....so...


I do have some videos of me running it....here they are
Some are shaky cause I was driving and fliming....

Oh and Firebird - The policeman told me as long as it is not bothering neighbors, or anyone is complaining about it I'm fine. I don't think they would impound it...lol....
It is loud though. The police where I live are not that mean.... I can ride my dirtbike going 60 down the streets and they don't care....they just don't like airsoft guns....sigh...

I think the nitro smells good, but it stings your eyes. Its not like the exhaust is in your face....its on the car....away from you.
