With the introduction of lipo technology, brushless motors, and bullet proof drive trains the potential for electric vehicles to surpass nitros in all catagories is at our fingertips. Be honest that is most peoples goal, to beat the fastest nitro in town or at the track and do it with a lowly electric. I love telling someone my truck is electric, have them go "Well try and keep up if you can" and then humiliate them.:027:
Right now the biggest limiting factor in the field of brushless 1/8 scale, in my opinion is the lack of a practical speed control that has both good programing and heat diissapation. I'm surprised that the companies who produce them dont make the few simple mechanical alterations it would take to fill the 1/8 scale void. The programing and electrical components are the hard part not the addition of heat sinks and or fans:032: At the same time I love screwing with things and enjoy making improvements so its all good.

JUST SAY NO TO NITRO
