LWB Hummer.....
Got my LWB Hummer in yesterday. Shweeeet! Made by Bensu, Again "Shweeeet". Came with a blue cap motor but it's definatley not a 1.0, runs like a strong 2.8 or 3.0. Pinion is 11 toothed so torque is not it's fortay but the motor has enough torque to get it movin pretty good. The chassis is "stretched" which makes this rig the "perfect" candidate for a dual/triple battery mod. (longer than a ZZ) Dual will fit with NO chassis mod, triple with lil modding. Steering is good and responsive, range is excellent (25ft), body is outstanding, very detailed though paint leaves a lil to be desired. The only bad thing I have to say about it is the wheels & tires. Tires are hardly ever great on clones but I knew that so I got Bit Charg-A tire with the order. These are "great" soft tires. Now the wheels are horrible, decent looking but wobbly and off center which throws the axle gear off too. Vibrates like crazy so the rig may get a set of German Alloys or at least a MS Full Wheel Mod along with a tripple Batt Mod.

LWB Hummer - $6.75
Soft Bit Tires - $2.25
Not a bad deal!

I think your Hummer is off the hook !!! I'm ready to order a couple of them right now. However, somebody told me you can't upgrade the motors in Bensu's. Is this true ? I hope not, cuz the stretched chassis and fly bodies definitely make this a good package.

I don't see why not! Maybe it's a motor bay issue with size.
I broke in my 2 of my 3.8's in it and that's definately an Upgrade! The motor fit in the bay perfectly.
