I can’t tell if those 4x4 trucks are the same as the ones I used to have as a kid. I used to hop them up by shimming the magnets in the motor closer to the rotor. Then used NiCad batteries instead of alkalines because they always used to spin the motors faster than non-rechargeable batteries. Mad to think I knew how to do that when I was 10.
