No no, like an egg shell under the accelerator.

Even a lightly squozen egg will break under an accelerator pedal.


Ever tried a sensored brushless in it? I bet you'd like it.

Power is one thing Brakes is the other, these things usually tend to spin even with good traction if You slightly over do it. I thought about trying a cheap gyro on rwd sc truck just see if i can get some realism out of it.

You can do it without a gyro, just depends on the truck, the setup, and your driving ability.

My sc10 was horrible about wanting to swap ends, no matter how it was tuned. You had to be on point 110% of the time when racing it. It was exhausting.

My Blitz is much more manageable. I can push it hard and come out of corners a little bit sideways like a real truck would, or even pull off a rwd drift around the bend. Definitely not the fastest way around the track, but it is fun.

I think rear toe-in is the key to success but You can only ad it up to a point ( If at all ).

Agreed. I think mine needs a touch more. A buddies Blitz will track straight as an arrow, mine wanders a bit.

Last night I relearned that I'm overdriving my chit. Instead of running hot and hard around our track, I held the throttle mid-way so I could make a lap without letting up or losing control. My lap times were noticeably faster than everyone elses.
