Stealth 2WD Touring Car
So, anybody seen the RadshapeRC stealth. It was reviewed in this months RRCi.
British made 2WD touring car at an entry level price. Looks like an interesting class to race - proper 2WD touring cars like the real ones!!! After the slow to no launch of the Street class - to me, this looks much better. Thoughts anyone? Might have to try one - maybe against the 4WD's |

Looks very good, although being 2WD I'd want to run it with foams...

Maybe these would be better than the Street Class that has not really taken off

It looks interesting but it's quite out on a limb. The street class was not a bad idea, but I think certain things made it difficult for it to take off - one of the key things is the use of carpet dragons.
I think we should simply go back to basics with the touring cars. Instead of running TC's and street class, just have one touring class that is something in between the two. For the past 2 race meetings that I have run TC, I have been running my 10 year old TC3 with a basic (non-dynamic timing) esc and 13.5T motor and it has more than enough pace for Bromham. The Stealth looks interesting but I think we would struggle to build up a class of them. Don't see a problem allowing them to run with the 4WD TC's though. That said, for not much more than the £150 price tag, you can get a 1/10th Pan Car (grown up mardave), even more relevent if you suggest running foams on the Stealth. When are we having the AGM? I think the TC class(es) would be a good focal discussion point. Paul |
