It's a skillful as RC cars, and if you tried it you'd not stay on the track for long! Watch some YouTube videos of 12th scale finals and you'd say the same thing. Modified 12th cars look crazy fast on video, and just as hard to control!

Nice spot, Nick. Thank you for bringing back some great memories of my slot racing days a long time ago!
I have tried that and i stayed on the track but it was not the fastest of cars that i tried but i noticed one wierd thing i have to use my right hand but when i race rc cars i use my left hand to pull the trigger .
