Wow, that looks like fun. I would love to get a supertruck someday, but man those things are a bit costly.

Man that looks minimal... Other than the wheels, those look big.

Nice Dragster! I originally want one but ended up picking up the Hardcore with BF setup.


Very nice!

So you decided to just get the small tires? :o Those things would float over anything. That is quite the machine there Krohn. Keep us up on how you get on with it.

I know when I upgraded my buggy to bigfoot lites, it felt much different when turning due to the width of the footpegs. With a eurotrax on the front does your leg rub the tire on a full lock turn? Shifting the pegs back further would only make your pegs swing further away from you in a full lock turn. I guess you aren't doing much short course stuff in a buggy like this so it has to be set up for comfort on the long haul and then you adjust your position for a turn?

Nice! The new Tron 2.0 light cycle huh?
I'm not a buggy guy but I can appreciate the toys :D

So how do you choose between the Truck II, Super Truck II, and the dragster? Other than a slightly wider axle on the dragster, and wheel options, I can't find what sets one apart from the other?

This is the current race buggy used by alot of the guys racing here. It is a monster but it does well on all courses.

The biggest diffrence over a Hardcore is the extra bracing between the side tubes as seen in the picture.
I took this one with a 160cm axle without the angle adjustments. You only need them if you are running disk wheels.
The foot pegs can also be adjusted for comfort. and a weight set is also available

We are going to france on the 11th to test this thing and a bunch of kites so I can say more afterwords.
