Simplest way to do this is a blob of blue-tack behind the trigger on the controller :-)

I'd say about 25 mph as a rough idea.

The electronics are water resistant. So yes, I wouldn't submerge it - but the odd splash should be fine.
Just bear in mind the increased maintenance required if used in wet weather

Pretty sure these are 25T horns

You could fit any standard brushless combo to these.
Eg say AB-2120002
Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Yes any 7.2v NiMh packs will work fine
Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models
These have a pistol grip transmitter - with a wheel and trigger (as do all cars these days).
You could change it easily enough if you like to a twin stick set such as CB2HR
Answered by: Ben @ Wheelspin Models
Most 2.8 wheels/tyres would fit these.
Something like PL10125-10 would be a popular chunky tyre

Yes, you can use 2s lipo on this car as long as you ste the lipo cutoff on the ESC

I'm very sorry but these are a ready to run car so we would not remove any of the items from them. you wopuld possibly be better loking at a kit build kar something like. HC-58370
Answered by: Si @ Wheelspin Models
From the box this will do around 20 - 25 MPH
Answered by: Si @ Wheelspin Models
This wuld work but may be a little slow as this is a brushed motor, you may be better with something brushless maybe like this MV15020MT80
