Ive got a mad monkey, up until recently I've been racing with all top line kit and have done for the last 20 years. Due to serious financial problems recently everything had to go, which is where the monkey came in. I thought to myself it's not going to be a great car but it's cheap and will keep me racing. But I was wrong, with the addition of a set of shocks and ball races, which takes the total cost of the car to around £100, the car will stay with the best of them. The last few years I've been running an X6 squared and the Ansmann certainly handles no worse that that atall and the x6 is an awesome car! As for idler gear issues, alarge part of that is down to people not setting slipper clutches up properly. Anyone that says this isn't a proper race buggy is just an RC snob!! If the car had an Associated badge instead of Ansmann, people would not be saying it's not a proper race buggy.
