It's poor that Tamiya still consider a (very expensive) upgrade such as a slipper as an option part - in the age of brushless motors, it's a necessity. Ansmann, LRP, FTX, Caster and others are putting out very good cars now that are both cheaper than this car, and have a slipper as standard.

The version to have of this car will be the DB02-R - they represent a more race-ready chassis.
