Let me know how you like it... mine's still being worked on by the Blitz. He's having some problems with weight issues with the high torque gearboxes and metal tracks :'(

Let me know how it goes, I had him do the same to one of mine, but I haven't had chance to fit the metal tracks and test it :~

you'll be pleased with it, I've a Tamiya(porsche turret) and the Matorro and it's a good model. I put in metal gear boxes before fitting metal tracks. You might also find as I did, the turret rotation painfully slow and it's because they have the wrong motor in the unit. It's an easy job to take out just the motor, not the whole unit, and put in the right one.
