Yeah, the taking flight at the end … I cringed to think the amount of damage that could’ve/probably caused.

RC car hobby is pretty expensive for what it is. My dad used to race RC cars when I was a little kid, at the time, his was considered fast hitting over 65mph. They are pretty neat I must say. Always wanted to get legit RC car, but never cared to dish out the dough for a “toy car”.

> What needs to be done, is a AWD conversion. Coming from someone that deals in RC’s cars all the time. I rarely see RWD RC’s not losing control at that speed. I have several cars that will do well over 100mph and are AWD that dont even tweak at high speeds. I understand he has more of a drag car, but its the wrong design for that kind of use.

the x01 was awd from the factory dont know why he would convert it to 2wd:ponder
