who won the race ?

I would have said it was pretty even back then, since that pic was taken I have fettled with mine a bit more. The handling is unreal, just like a real car. Adjustable everything too. Once set up properly they really drive well. I just thrash mine round car parks though

It will lay rubber though while donutting, which is nice

only reason i ask as nitro is cool is you want to do just back yard bashing but quite difficult if you want to get into it for competitive fun.

I've recently just got back into RC cars but 10th Touring Car, and will be racing in a few weeks once a few more bits arrive from the USA. Been out of it for about a year but hopefully its just like riding a bike
