I love the hot shot Rims, remind me of ATS Cup "Felgen" <-- Wheels on a lot of old school VW's and BMW's. Check ou the other wheels they have some all alloy hornet-hopper, etc wheels
Nice stuff

Looks to be a good piece of engineering .
No more broken arms or mounting points.
I like the four shock option too.
Anyone got this and what is it like??
Thanks.

i bought a set last week, i like it alot, very smooth, very strong, not too heavy either. wheels weigh a ton but they arent made to be fast.
bought a set of universals, front aluminum steering hubs, and added a hotshot 2 underguard, and some other goodies.
finishing it off this week when i get my mail order parts

That's pretty cool. Looks hot too. Sounds like it needs a slipper clutch.

Got this kitt and is a awsome bit of engineering.
Thought i would fit my own shocks but couldnt get them correctly mounted due to the fact their own shocks have swivel balls at both mounting points. ( especially the Rear ) .
Just order their shocks & than will track test.
Am concerned that its around 130-150g heavier.
But looks really cool and NO slop in the front end and better shock response even with the mono shock set up.

Very nice kit, those wheels are worth the extra weight!! They look fantastic!

Their suspension set up works really well.
Just track tested my Hot Shot with a 11DBL and was so good on the track.
No serious hot shot based buggy should be without it.

Hi all,
Here's my hotshot!
The rc channel suspension kit was a must for this chassis,pity the dampers are naff!
The wheels are quality though!
cheers Peter.

WOW Maxima.
What chassis kit is that you got.???? Looks awsome man.
My Super shot runner will only ha a few mods at this stage. Better shocks and a bell crank steering set up from a Top Force and a potent brushed motor.
I really like the RC Channel set up. Have you run yours yet.???

Very cool chassis. I also like the rc channel bits for it. I just got a set of classic wheels for my Jeep and am impressed with the quality.
