Call it beginers luck, but my first race with a SC and I qualified in the A-Main and finished sixth. These things are smooth and unbreakable. I ran a stock setup with a stock LRP motor, the only mistake I made is instaling Proline calipers instead of goosebumps like everyone else. They had very little grip on the hard packed surface, after getting home I looked up the Calipers and found out they are for loose surfaces. They looked nice in the packaging though.
Never raced a 2wd truck and found it almost easy compared the my 4wd, if 2wd buggy is anything like the SC10 I'll be ripping up the track with my Cougar SV.
p.s.never touched a 2wd buggy either.
