No one is questioning that fact. What I was writing about was the aerodynamics of the XTM MMT truck trying to run high speed passes, and needing some kind of down force to keep it on the ground for better handling. So installing a wing and maybe some kind of front spoiler may help with that issue as stated earlier. Plus the materials used in the XTM MMT make it a great buy for an out of the box RTR vehicle. It is by far more superior than an EMaxx for what you get in the box at the MSRP.
My aerodynamic problems are coming from the front end. The bumper is big and has alot of frontal area. I'm going to swap to the XLB bumper and hopefully reduce that front end area some.
