I sprayed a body for one.... boy that took alot of paint!! It belonged to a friend (& proprietor of Modeltech). We ran that car in the Schumacher BTCC series too.... with one of the first (& basic) brushless systems that Modeltech sold - probably back in the early 2000s? I think it still ran on a six cell pack of batteries & was reasonably quick (well alot quicker than the standard car) But I think you would struggle to get the 100mph out of it - that you suggest on your blog site - its just too heavy & the shell is un-aerodynamic
- The gearbox however proved faultless with BL power
I drove the car on a few occasions - its certainly different to driving cars of a smaller scale - to a certain extent it feels more realistic, it reacts slowly & drifting slides can be held quite nicely - like a real Exige the Big6 is quite tail happy!
