I am hooked on these things. Total rebuild and an awesome website. Am I the only one that loves to rebuild or modify ANYTHING?

I have a Hummer H2 under the knife right now. It currently has an Optima in it...

Looks like maybe a bike helmet would be prudent on some of the faster ones.

I had a twin battery camoed trike when I was a kid. Fastest thing on the block, and parentrs had to run to keep up with me. I guess it got me hooked

Who's got more of these videos? I remember seeing one with about a nine year-old drifting his Mustang in an impressively controlled manner. Anybody got the linky?

If you decide you want to use a car battery or some other sealed powerfull 12V battery, I've got some wiring diagrams I wrote up that you might be interested in.

12V to each motor, forward or reverse. Or 6 V series. In any combination.

Uses the existing switches and the existing wiring with minimal modification.
