Its so much less hassle now with 2.4ghz, brushless and lipos, a lot of people are coming back to racing.

Yeah, the "rubbing" adds a whole extra dimension to racing, all without the wheels getting tangled up or things breaking. Last week was my first time out with the SC, but i'll be sticking with them.

Trucks just drive 'differently'. Bumps are easy, jumps too but tighter corners more tricky especially with the longer SCT's.
Truth be told if Tishers running a T4 trucks is pretty much wound up already - it will be tough to beat that. Stadiums are slightly shorter, have fatter wheels and bodies that don't parachute meaning they are a little quicker than SCT's on our track. In effect a T4 is an SC10 optimised for a tight, grippy track!

That SC10 4x4 needs a sensor wire. The motor has a sensor port so I take it its the esc that doesn't. Would solve all the cogging issues.

I need to track down another XX4 to build a new SODA truck don't I? That thing was awesome: basically a 4x4 stadium truck.
