Thank you sir! I read the Hoon definition and then applied it to the car. I think it shows Team Associated built a tough performer!

Glad to see that these are super tough. But for that price, they should have come with a brushless setup.

Most rc car kits that are in the same price range as this hoonicorn don't have a brushless motor. Have you ever built an rc car or even taken a moment to do some research on it before?

@@rwstuart9272 Not quite sure what you're talking about. Arrma has a bunch of brushless models for less than this AE model, including the Vendetta which is an on road car. Senton, Granite, Big Rock etc, are brushless. Traxxas has a bunch of off road brushless models at around the same price as well. 100% should have come brushless for near $400.

@@rwstuart9272 rc car kits need to be built, and come with nothing, however they tend to be higher quality than rtr, but why mention this when its not relevant ? this TA rtr, at this price point should be brushless, your paying a premium for the Ken Block theme going on here. i could name at least 30 rtr cars in this size scale, and price bracket, with brushless systems, capable of 60+ mph. Do your research please.

I just got mine and this thing is absolutely incredible! Plenty of power and honesty the brushed motor is not an issue at all. It's a Reedy 550 upgraded from the 500 and it absolutely hoons just like it's big brother! No complaints whatsoever!!! HOON ON!!!!

Thanks for another excellent review. I really enjoyed it and looks like fun.

That looks awesome and I love it so much, I just want to shred at the asphalt too! Hoonigans represent! 😎👍

Of course would love to see more power in a brushless setup 😉

Dope Video glad I came across your channel some other videos didn't provide the same info and review as you!

What an awesome looking car! I want one 😃

Nice review and awesome bash 💪🏼

Dude that thing is such a cool looking car! Took a decent beating as well! I love road cars you can street bash. Wish they had slapped on some aluminum shocks and gotten rig of that wonky spur pinion and idler design, but otherwise it’s perfect!

Those details are amazing, the price is too

Huh, fist time I've seen G10 being used on an RC. Only seen it used on knife scales and sometimes on 3D printer beds

Needs the brushless set up in it from the factory.

Solid review Greg and great bash. Though it does have me a bit worried if Hoonigan have licensed with a company other than HPI.

Really like this. Will likely pick one up (link down below! Haha). I’m still trying to get the taste of MT8 initial performance out of my mouth ha. But hopefully it was a fluke on their part! Besides, since it shared so many parts with the redcat kaiju, the same parts in fact that broke on the kaiju 😂😂 the replacement “v2” parts were readily available from redcat lol. Great review as always. I can tell you love that little skate park!

Proper bashing there Greg!! Since I don't know i will ask. Can that idler gear come out to put bigger pinion gear? My noobie mind was wondering. Or would it run hot? Some skid plates would be a good touch to protect that plastic a little better underneath. As always, great video and keep them coming!!

The motor slides so you can put a bigger pinion in. The idler is there so you can set the gear mesh properly and drop the assembly right into the chassis.

In earlier years of RC, fiberglass was used for the base of lots of on-road cars. It’s not used as often now as many companies switched to a composite chassis for budget cars or you’ll find carbon fiber for high-end racers. This car has the right bracing for the fiberglass making it rigid and light. You’ll just need to keep an eye on wear, usually in the rear.

💪🏾💯🔥

So it is the same as the Hoonicon truck I just purchased then, but has a composite chassis instead of the alloy one the truck has.

Is it meant to jump..?

Neat car, But it's a little pricy for what it is i guess your paying for the licensed body which is better than the ZD Racing EX-07 or EX-16 which is not officially licensed.
