cross your fingers folks... if this pans out, this is a pretty significant improvement.
Well, 1 step forward (with fixing the PCB setup) and 1 LEAP back (with the UGLY new bodies).

...Still, that's exciting stuff if they did fix it.

richh What is the date code (on the bottom of the package) of your new Viper SE?

Once I get some more money ($5) i am getting a Ford GT. Which color should I get and when do think the bodies themselves will be available? I want the Navy one but the White is growing on me. I can't get the Navy yet because no one has them at all. They all have the white ones. I might just get the white one tonight and get a blue body later.


BTW You can order the white one online.

I won't. there are none available anywhere. I only have $20. I really like the white one but I don't want to have to buy two chassis to get the white body.

I am going for the white one tonight. They said they have it. If someone is buying one for the chassis only could you get one with a blue body and put the body on ebay? Please!

Wow, they messed those GT's up big time. The only ones that "look like" they got right are the Vette's.

after a few days of messing with my viper se, i still think a change was made to improve the speed. i made a quick video of the viper chassis with the stock motor and gears. excuse the quality; i need some better lighting and a tripod

let me know if you think this is faster than the older se's

here's the link

se video

by the way, from where the camera is to the back wall of the room is about 13 feet.

nice video! My GT is just as fast. With the NX I can hold the throttle and turn all the way to one side and roll after doing a circle or two. It is crazy!

I'm assuming the Corvette's will be the same as the one in the new corvette past and present kit. The Mustang Mach 1 sounds pretty cool.
