Hey guys, just thought I'd start a thread here for the Caster buggies. Excellent quality for an unbeatable price.

i like the rig itself, i did buy it ready to run and the hobbywing ezrun 80 esc started to glitch uncontrollably within 2 runs and i couldnt ever get ahold of caster (where i bought it) to see if i could get it replaced by warrantee. so now she has a MMM and will be on 6s. the rig itself holds up very well though, id like to see them come out with a roller or rtr brushless truggy.

Slowngreen, PM me your information and I'll get someone at Caster to contact you about your ESC. Nate.

One question, did you buy it from Caster or Caster USA?

PS, nice buggy Cheesypoof... how you like the JC Rubber?

Those are the stock ones from when I first built the truck.

For racing I'm using some AKA City Blocks and I'm waiting for the Caster Tires to get in stock for the F8T. The soft ones on white Dish with the snake eyes on them. They should hook on anything.

Here is my last run for today with my ZX-1R. Was hving engine problems with no bottom end then lost top too. Time to get rid of the Picco and get anither Caster Grenade. The run times are killer. Got over 8 1/2 minutes on it with a fuel sucking JP3
and a stock insert and the engine didn't even have 2 quarts of fuel thru it and when we pulled it off the track it temped at 187. I want the Grenade pipe to go with it. I bet I can get over 11 minute run time.

I've got the Pro CNC Chasis on mine. Only have big bore shocks on the rear so far but I'm planning on getting the adjustable big bores for it soon but it handles well as is.
