|  Minor rock racer possible?
How fast is the average Berg setup? Thinking of getting one but wonder if it could also do some rock racing without having to change motor/gear. Wouldn't need to be crazy quick, just 10mph or so. |

I remember seeing Holmes having a berg with 7t cobalt pullers. Nice slow speed or wicked fast with that set up.

The axles are onl geared around 40:1 so they are faster than most axials with the same electronics. Big tires help as well.

Like all have said. Definetly the fastest crawler I have had that still has plenty of torque and slow sped control. At full speed it is faster than I can steer controllably on the rocks. |

Just buy a Slash or Stampede and leave the Berg 100% crawler. Dual purpose means it sucks at both. |
