I think it is the CV-X, maybe. I haven't used in a couple of years so I will do my best. The last time I used it I was doing burn-outs in my garage ( ) when the spur gear and the gears in the transmission basically melted/shredded. I guess I've got a little too much power in 'er . It is a Kyosho Sandmaster ST-2. Orginally it was a piece of crap, but I did a little work on it. I put a Silverado Pro-line body on it (Black with yellow flames), Duratrax shocks all around, steel tunable turnbuckles, Associated tuned pipe, boost bottle, Futaba radio, aluminum flywheel, heat sink head, and I'm sure some other stuff. One thing's for sure, eventhough it is a remote control, I put way too much money into it. I also made some aluminum and carbon fiber braces for the weak plastic shock towers. It didn't get much better for a kid who didn't have his license to enjoy a real car. It was either pretend to race on a computer, or go outside and run it around for about fifteen minutes (at this time something was surely to break).
