Nice car mark, I bought an ofna ultra mbx pro from Horse a little over a year ago. I think it's got the .26 motor but i'm not sure. I haven't used it in a while. I need some parts for it. The muffler is shot, and the front supports for the suspension are bent due to excessive rolling :laugh:
I was thinking about doing a street conversion to it since i don't use it off road. and so i could put a nicer body on it. but as it stands now, with street tires is drifts really nice! the kids around here with their .18's hate me because i just destroy them! lol!
I hate the pull start...it takes way too many pulls to get it started. Also, when the car is hot, say like i run out of gas or something, it makes it even harder to get it started. But, the car won't idle very long either...if i'm running it and make it come to a stop it'll die after a few seconds. So that might have something to do with it. I know it's running pretty rich. some fuel/oil splattered down the side after a run. I really haven't had time to mess with it much though. I want a roto start either way.
Oh, and be sure to keep the grub screws tight on those hubs that the driveshafts connect to! I find they like to come loose quite often...one flew off one time, got thrown a good 30 feet. didn't think i'd be able to find it. made a terrible noise too, though i broke the car!
