Indeed as Ken said to you at the weekend, faster car isn't faster on track.

If you were looking at brushless I'd start with a 10.5 motor, get the lines etc. As Steve will say it's all about how you enter the corners, how you position your car on track etc.

Watch Steve's car and lines etc. or the Westwood's etc.

Did you sort out the car handling?

hey mike ...yeah i the rat handles as id like it [as i was heard saying "must have the only rat with over steer lol"]
just having one small prob n thats heat on my electrics ...ive changed the pinion from 21 to a 19 ..but prob still persisted ...i did notice however i fried the rats gear box bearings ,so id guess that not help.

i was watching the other cars as i marshal....and was seeing what others were doing then trying it on the track ...i din crash so much and i got quicker ........im gonna go back to the durango this sunday [if bits arrive]..

had to do some radical changes to the front end but ..im just pleased i can steer it ...but im still improving
