I drove one, and out of the box it was pretty good...it popped the ballcups on the pivot ball steering link after a few good crashes, but at least they didnt break.

I've had a Mayhem and liked it just didn't have that much tuning options on it. And the Turmoil is pretty much an updated Mayhem

I drove a rtr that had some slight suspension work done to it and I was really suprised at how well it handled. my biggest gripe about the turmiol is that the arm mounts are bolted to the chassis, like the old mugen mbx4,instead of being bolted to the gearboxes, and it makes disassembly and maintenence a little more time consuming

The turmoil is hard to beat on dirt oval. Thats what i beat GLEN with at panther in the open class. lol. Also i think one has the track record at speedzone in athens. So its an awesome oval buggy. tons of turn in. Its not the greatest off roader but not too bad.
Look for a white lifetime kia morristown sponsored turmoil in the winners circle at family rc. probly see it there alot this year. lol.

I have 2 of these kits, and love em. The only thing that you need to do is get some different rod ends (or tie-rod ends) as we call em. Dubro makes some that I have on mine, that you put a screw and washer thru the ball, and be done with it. Now go race it. It can,and will win.. If my 9yr old can beat & bang with it, it's tough...:thumbs:
