I've never really been into rc racing to be perfectly honest. I've raced go-karts for around 6 years and now I am moving into cars, so thats where I get my competitive race fix from
RC has pretty much been something that I can build, and see coming together before my eyes. Its alot cheaper than buying a 1:1 car and tuning that up (and probably provides better resale value), but still provides a pretty good engineering side to things. For example, the Revo suspension setup is nearly identical to that on an open wheel race car, pretty cool if you ask me...
Hopefully in the next few weeks I can get the wheels and tyres, steering servo, wing, and body to get this thing into a full blown roller!!
