Someone correct me on this if I’m wrong, but I wouldn’t recommend getting OEM Bullets for that job. The axles are OK but the gearing on almost all of the OEMs I know of is more like the gearing on Bit racers. Instead of the little black pinion you get a big white one which gives you high speed with bugger-all torque. The way the cars are made, you’re stuck with that white gearing – it’s not compatible with real Charg Es.

Unless you plan to take the wheels and gearing and transfer them over. I guess that would work. But why bother?

My recommendation, why not get the proper Bit Charg E setting kit? It comes with 3 nice straight axels with 3 gear choices and 3 spare black pinions for the motor.

Only get OEMs to muck about with or race other OEMs (or maybe in the spirit of scientific discovery Derek :smiley1:). They just don’t come close to the real thing performance or finish-wise.

You’ve obviously tried straightening it yourself?

My 2 cents.
