I've never been a fan of Buggy's until recently, I now have a DT-02, Hot-Shot II, 2x Sand Scorchers but I really wanted a 4WD one that I could thrash for little money. After lots of research a DF-02 seemed to fit the bill. After keeping an eye on eBay for a few days this Rising Storm popped up, it had only been run a couple of times before the front shock tower snapped. I promptly bought it for the princely sum of £48 delivered and at the same time ordered alloy shock towers from Fusion hobbies. I'm really pleased with how it runs even on just the silver can and a NiMh. I'll be upgrading it to LiPo and probably a Super Stock motor shortly to give it some pep and maybe some longer shocks for more ground clearance.

Nice score! I've always liked these and the livery/colors are awesome. They seem to be under-represented also. I've read on some forums that ground clearance/shock travel is the one major drawback which should be rectified by adding longer shocks which is a good idea.
