It could, but it depends on whether or not its got a good driver and good setup.

Status: offline 		It would be 2wd vs. 4wd. I have a Jato and I know there is no way I could keep up with some of them buggies and truggies. Might be a little different with a RC10GT2, they are supposed to be a little less crazy on dirt

Status: offline 		the jato with some off road tires would mash on a track... on the other hand those other cars still have bigger motors and most likely 4wd...

get some beefy/dirt rear tires and learn throttle control and your golden

Talking nitro's... ?

Nope, especially if you wanna match a .12 st aganist a 4wd 1/8th buggy. A st aganist a truggy would also be a blunder, as truggies are much faster. Thats why they have different classes such as, 1/18, 1/10, 1/8th, 1/5th and so on.

Would you bet a million dollars, jump in a nascar and race an Indy car, I didn't think so.

Status: offline 		4WD buggies still rule the track. It takes alot more finesse to get a stadium truck around the track than it would a 4wd buggy. I'd have to say that 1/8 scale buggies still rule the track, but some of these brushless 4wd 1/10 scale buggies a realy agile, and real quick.
