I know this is about the rims but...........Is the Volcano EPX a good basher/car for a beginner. My uncle is getting his first car.

How much runtime can you get out of the stock battery. He'll probably just get a new charger/batteries anyway but how good is the runtime.

How fast is it and would you say it has decent power (even though it's 4WD).
