should i race it?

[tallyram]

finally, my xt8 is done! mike shipped it back and it should be here on the 24th. there is a huge circle track close by and they are having a big race on the 27th with trophies and all. should i race my brand new truggy and prey on unsuspecting nitros, or should i take it slow and work out any problems before i run it balls out?
