Welcome Alan!
I, like yourself and seemingly many others, are returning racers to the fold. It seems that the attraction of the immensely potent LiPo/brushless combination is attracting us back!
I quite liked the challenge of getting it just right back in the day. Preparation was everything! Balanced cells, perfect commutators and gearing that was just right for 5mins and 20 seconds. Ahhh. How many excellent runs were ruined by a premature dump?!
Not anymore! The cars seem to be able to do about 120mph down the straights for, I'm told, about 20 minutes! Rediculous!
I've still to decide on my first car, but am thoroughly looking forward to the whole thing!
