    Sounds like a good excuse to modify the internals. Rig up a bigger motor, throw in a reciever/speed controller and a servo for the steering... come on man, wheres the hotrodding spirit. (y)

    I picked up a Pinto RC car today. This thing is cool! Man, I hope they come out with Mavericks like this.

    It seems to be pimped right out of the box. This thing just needs flames!!
