Cool!! Always like tricked out Lindberg cars. Did you read my artcle in LRB on altering the rear and front?
By the way were did you put the springs? With 9,6V your car will not gonna last long...better is it to use less power but more weight in the rear.

no i didnt i wanted to but i never found the issue, the springs are from a pen and they are inside going from the motor cover thing to the main bar on the front axle i know 9.6v is very high thats why i dont play with it long just a few mins and hopefully ill get a vid on

The bars for those hoppers brake everytime I do that for awhile :uh:

You should reinforce the arms...just use pieces of thick styrene or brass.

The hood and trunk are molded as part of the kit....there is also no interior. If you take one apart you will see why there is no interior. The center of the vehicle acts as a housing for the motor and all of the gears. If you notice, that is why they're hoppers have black windows all the way around.
