    This car is amazing, although you will most likely have to order metal centre drive shafts, it performs really well, I have had one major problem though, my gears in the gearbox have broken and you are only able to order plastic ones, could you please design some metal ones for better durability?

    Yes this car is cheap and looks pretty cool but the performance is shocking, the steering locks up and isn’t even 4WD it’s RWD. I’m sad I have to say this because I was very exited but I wouldn’t recommend.
