you can get any more to last, just as long as you know how to tune them

I had the Spec 2 LRP, and I really liked it, it was easy to tune, held its tune great, and was stupid fast, they are also a really good price too, I might be putting the spec 3 in my truggy, but havn't decided yet, I dont have any experience with the Piccos thoguh, I have heard they are touchy to tune, not sure if thats true or not?
