That's pretty bad ass looking. But does it move out? A friend of mine got a Bib Block Jato on some spray, fucker only goes about 75mph.

Ya it moves out all right....its right about 5.4hp.........i start 1 and get it tuned then shut it off and start the other one and tune it.....then fire up both.......its a blast but on grass i can`t floor it till i`m doing about 30-40 or it will flip over backwards......on dirt it just shits and gets......on black top it lifts the front right wheel for about 60 feet....

How fast are the Brushless motor setups and what does it cost to get into a decent setup?

I have a 4x4 slash and a 2wd slash. Both are brushless. The 4x4 is an expensive truck. Around $400.00 for the complete setup with an 8.4v battery. It flys out of the box. Then for about $200.00 you can go to a Lipo. battery and charger. It's like putting your R/C car on nitrous. Plus the run time increases by almost double. I would start with a two wheel drive slash. Very durrable trucks.

That shot of your car in your avatar, that's how these brushless electric trucks take off with a Lipo battery. Crazy fast stuff compaired to what we had in the late 80s early 90s.

How fast are they really. MPH wise?

They claim 65mph geared with a Lipo battery out of the box. I would tend to lean toward the 45 to 50mph range. This is only with a Lipo battery, with a typical nicad, it's a whole different game. My 4x4 Slash shreads it's tires, I love it.
