Controversy time but here goes. The Rising Fighter, along with the Fighter Buggy, Super Hornet, Hornet, Grasshopper, Grasshopper 2 and any Frog variant are actually very good race cars...with one important proviso. You have to be racing in a minority class called "Cars What Are Totally Shite And Should Never Have Been Advertised On The Box As High Performance Electric RC Models". This is a very rare class, in fact I don't think I've ever seen a heat being run. Come to think of it, it'd be a good idea - certainly make a change from scale caravan racing or some of the other daft things clubs do at Chrimbo time. By the way, I'm allowed to say this. See my avatar pic, I raced that but only after I gave up with the Hotshot (Hotshit more like). It was epically bad in a perversely amusing sort of way - in fact, I almost fell off the rostrum laughing at myself.
