I thought I'd post this for the fun of it. It's not real off road stuff but it is real 4 wheel drive :D These trucks are 4 wheel drive with 8 oil filled shocks, front and rear oil filled diffs, 2 speed automatic trans, and 3hp 4.6cc nitro engines. They are about 24 inches long, tires are 6in in diameter and weigh about 11 pounds. They suspension can be tuned and configure for off road racing, rock crawling or just plain old "bashing". My son's and I spend some great time together with these.

The first pic is a race only version -

The second is a similar truck in "basher" form -

Here's a link to short video with the basher doing a backflip -

My brother has two nitro rustlers, 1 has no engine and the other doesnt run right(pieced an engine together so he could drive it.) The one that has an engine was run over by the neighbor twice.

I have to get one of those small engines one day

I have always wanted to mount an engine and clutch in a cordless drill "shell"

no more batteries needed just fuel up and pull the starter :D

It must be possable
I saw one on tool time
