Well after having some quality time out with the all new THE CAR RTR what can i say;

I was very impressed to be able to run the car at CMCC on the dirt track and had a great time and considering it a RTR it handled fantastic.Dave Griffiths GB Modelsport had a few tweaks with it as you would with all cars and then of i went for a play

The whole package you get for a RTR i thought was fantastic value for money and it was a pleasure to have a go with the car

I even thought about getting 1 as a car for dirt tracks to be honest with you so this gives me 2 cars 1 for astro set up another for dirt set up ;


FACTS AND SPECIFICATIONS ;

We wanted to create a new standard of performance for 1:8th RTR Buggies. By clever design and production arrangements, we have been able to keep the specification of this vehicle high, and as close to the Pro version as possible. The servos and engine have been chosen based on their performance as well as their affordability. We wanted to make sure that the servos are strong and fast enough to be able to control the car, in a similar fashion to actual race cars with top of the line servos. Many RTRs have so slow and weak servos, that they are hard to drive for even experienced racers. This is not the case with this RTR, as the Savöx servos are strong and fast enough for the task. The engine is a standard pullstart RTR unit, and it has more than enough power for this super lightweight RTR, that only weights 3300g. The street price is expected to land at €399 in Europe, and $399 in usd markets, and it should be available worldwide in August.

Features:

Weight: 3300g

Radio and Receiver: 2.4ghz, with EPA, Dualrate and Trim

Receiver Pack: 1200 NiMh

Engine: .21 Pullstart

Steering Servo: Savöx SC0253MG, 0,14sec/8kg all metal gear servo

Throttle/Brake Servo: SC0352, 0,13sec/6,5kg

Tyres: Multi surface preglued tyres on THEWheel

Chassis: 4mm Aluminium

Bodyshell: Pre painted lexan body

Driveshafts: Front CVD Driveshaft, Rear Dogbones

Clutch: 3-shoe clutch

Shock Absorbers: Hard Anodised Shocks, 3.5mm shock shaft

Brakes: Twin fibreglass brake disks

Switch: THE JQ Genius non-Patented Safety Switch

(Requires Glow Starter, 4 AA Batteries for the Transmitter, a standard glowplug and RC Fuel to run)
