Default Watch Team Durango!

Those guys at Team Durango have 'gotten with the times' and now have their own channel on the You Tube video sharing site.
There's only a couple of videos on there at the moment - with a nice little promo video and a practical battery-change test video.



Check out the channel at: http://www.youtube.com/user/WatchTeamDurango - luckily you don't actually sit and watch the guys, that would be creepy.

it can do that, due to the heavier rotating mass of the geared diffs, and I can get tyres to do that.

Back end looked a little 'bouncy' though,still looks like a good car though

Are they pink compound by any chance? I have a packet of those, they're like wine gums left in the sun.

One thing that was putting me off this car at first was the faff around in taking the centre unit out of the car to chance cells / LiPo, But it looks stupid simple, Car looks mint round that track!
