Radio shack stopped making them in 2010 or 2011.

Did you have a li-poly battery upgrade and custom wound motor? I've heard of them getting up to 30-35 with those mods and maybe 40 with a FET upgrade...but 45?

OP, if you want to upgrade your xmod rode to be faster, just go to atomic mods

I sent my stage 4 motor to a guy on some site a few years ago and for 20$ he would mod it took a few months to get it back in the mail

Would take it to local rc parks and would still get smashed by an Evo so I'm sure they went a lot faster than mine
