This is exactly why I think the Slayer, in its current form, is going to be a short lived phenomenon. With that short wheel base, and small tires, the driver is going to have to be good, and the set up even better. I have a feeling that in 6 months, there will be a lot of these for sale cheap, as kids get frustrated with them because they are too hard to drive (compared to extended wheel base monsters that they are used to). I don't see there being more than a handful of guys that have the ability to run these around a corner the way the real CORR trucks do it. Its really a feel thing, that I dont think one can get unless you have a steering wheel in your hand, and dirt in your face.
