All of them are goin to require at least 30-45 min of cleaning after every run so maintenance is needed
Interesting.. is there a specific online store you can recommend? thanks for the info. I had a boat from Traxxas that i purchased from a local hobby store. it was ready to run with gas motor and electric start. it flipped over and sank with the quickness.. what a waste of money LOL.

did you paint it on the inside or on the outside? if you painted the outside, you should be able to peel a little corner up and actually pull off all of the paint and stickers you applied on the outside the reason I said you painted it on the wrong side is because it looks like you used a lot of paint on the outside of the shell which caused the lines of the car to be hidden.

no its painted on the inside...the correct way to do it...it looks really shiny cuz of the flash on the camera..it does not really sparkle like that...
