Something that I'm sure will please Namuna, I picked me up a Hulk Chevy today -:)

I wasn't really in the market for another Zap (and I already have the MP MT), but I received a $25 RS gift card and figured, what the hey -:)

Now that I have two MTs, I'll definately have to buy the American Truck body kit. My local RS that I bought the Hulk Chevy from had a bunch of the body kits in stock, but every blasted one of the packages looked like it had been used as a hockey puck. Not only were the tops of the packages scratched up, but the tops of the bodies as well <aarrgghh>. Guess I'll have to wait till after Christmas to try another RS store, hopefully their body kits won't be in such bad shape.

After I get the body kit, pics will follow on my web site of the body kit bodies mounted on the trucks, as well as the Hulk Chevy -:)

(Edit) Man, now all I need is a medium-blue '69 Dodge D-200 Camper Special LOL! -:)

Hey do you know how much extra torque and speed the upgrade kit can give you?

I can't give exact figures LOL, but quite a bit -:)

For a mathematical comparison of the speeds, check the "Motor and Gear Ratio Chart(s)" on my ZipZaps Stuff web site, link is in my sig below.

Okay thanks for the help.

Radio Shack still does sell the zzmt upgrade kits don't they?

I just went into my local Radio Shack this morning and picked up a Monster Patrol ZZMT, motor/gear upgrade kit, and the American Trucks bodykit. (I passed on the wheels kit for now) So, yeah, Radio Shack still carries the upgrade kits. ;)

Hey Dan! Good to see ya here (as well as getting yourself a MT)! -:)

I'll be getting myself the American Trucks body kit as soon as I get to another RS on Monday. I swear, most of the stuff that my immediate local RS has in stock looks like it's been through a meat grinder.

@Mendez, Hehe, as Dan said, yes they still carry the upgrade kits... after all, the MTs just came out a few short months ago :wink:
