I have been running my HalfEight for a some weeks nearly without any hop-ups. I just installed bearings, oil-shocks, a brushless motor and made some battery-packs - and the car really was a lot of fun!
Now after everybody keeps showing all that bling-bling pictures I couldn't resist and orderd some parts, too. I thought it would be a good idea to clean the car before I install the new parts - damn, this little thing has more parts than I thougt it has:
Since I don't have a manual it was quite a bit stupid to take it apart completly, but finally I managed to rebuild it.
So this is my new ride... but after all, I'm not quite sure if all of the new parts are really useful - and so far, none of the original parts broke so there was no need to replace them. I could not run the "new" HalfEight on the track yet because it's been raining for days. Maybe I will replace some of the new parts with the stock parts after I tested how it handles now - time will tell...
