Can anyone offer any opinions on how the SX2 would handle a loose, bumpy, 1/8th scale track? My local track here where we race is the 1/8th nitro track with some pretty decent jumps and a very loose surface. Is the belt drive system just asking for trouble on a dusty surface like this?

Also, with the two chassis options, does one offer more grip and could be better for a track like mentioned above, or is it solely just weight reduction and strength?

Heres a video of the track with some nitros running it, so can give you an idea of what I am talking about........

just check the belt pullies for any dirt trapped in between the teeth. keep an eye on spur and pinion also. other than that it just as fast as anything out there.
