Better late than never... I drove the car on tarmac again to show it to a friend - he was so kind to get some footage of the car. You can see it's got brakes unlike any other car And as you can see, two rear wheels are overrated when it comes to cornering, too!

It's just lovely how agressive it can be driven into corners The corner speeds is amazing, the only thing I need to reduce is wheelspin and tire wear out of corners (though admittedly, with all the braking to make those stoppies happen, the already worn front tires were completely bald in two batteries)

Data on conditions/setup/etc:
Front tires: Proline Caliber M3 Wide/Rear (About 2mm of tread left at the beginning of the run).
Rear tires: Losi (something... Stud?) tires, 4WD Front (reasonable tread left).
Damper setup: Same as on dirt/clay (see page 7 or 8 for reference on that).
Ride Height, Front: 21mm with 12-ish mm droop.
Ride Height, Rear: 26-ish mm with 1-2mm droop.
