I bought the thing so I could get in to actually racing it, and I've no chance as it stands, and I can't see what the problem is :-/

Hey man i am sorry to hear that your problem with the Durga is still happening. Just as jimmy has stated, it is hard to diagnose the problem without having the car in flesh. Quite obviously the problem has something to do with your electronics. Did you buy your gear new or used? The best suggestion for the problem was that your motor timing might be set too high. Did you look into this possible problem?
From my understanding you are quite new to this hobby. I feel your pain and know just how frustrating things can be when things aren't working properly, especially with the amount of money you have probably spent. Luckily for me i learned how to diagnose certain things and how to fix them by starting off with simple kits and electronics. All of my kits have been Tamiya and started with the hornet, then a stadium blitzer, to the midnight pumpkin, a Manta ray and a couple of other simple kits. All of the kits just mentioned are ones that i would not purchase at this point in time due to performance purposes, but all were very fun to drive and to work on but most of all taught me everything i know in this hobby.
I understand that none of my rambling is going to help you, but i encourage you to stick with it as things will be rewarding when you have a better understanding of the hobby and how things work. I hope that it doesn't sound like i'm belittleing your knowledge for the hobby. My best suggestion to fix your current problem is to bring your car to a meeting so that you can have someone look at it for you. I myself don't race, but understand that the best place for you to have your car looked at for no cost would be at the race track. I hope i have been a little helpful for you and wish you the best of luck to get things sorted out.
