I currently have an electric one and it just isnt fast enough for me. If you find a place please do share the info. My friends races RCs and we are trying to see if we can make a chasis that my electric body will fit on

What you need to know first is, are you going to run it for fun or serious racing?
Next, if it is for serious racing, get the 1/10 Serpent Impulse kit. It comes with a Nova-Rossi .12 engine which makes 1 HP! @ 35000rpm. Basically what I'm trying to say here is plan ahead and research. Another good chassis is the new HPI nitro 2. It has an anemic motor though. Just about any 1/10 scale kit will accept the lexan lightning body. It's just up to you. Hope this helps, If you have any questions.........

FYI, we have done both at my HobbyTown, Serpent and HPI as well as others.
It is a little tweaky getting the body cutouts right as you need airflow on a nitro truck that you don't need on the electric version. Contact me at my e-mail if you wish ideas etc.
Further BTW, I am now paying Steve for advertising here and will have a post on the board in a couple of days. I'm legal guys!
