Thanks very much for your response! I appreciate it. How would this sound...doing everything like you have listed except for the motor. For drifting I could possibly switch out the motors, and then for carpet racing, I could put the 12t motor back in...just a thought.

I also thought I read somewhere that a car had the capabilities of limiting itself to a certain speed (like a governor). Can this feature be added to the higher powered motor, and then all I'd have to do is switch the setting to a higher race speed for carpet? What's your thoughts...

On another quick note, my father owns a mortuary and we have 2 parking lots. One is approximately 30 x 50 ft and the other is approx 100 x 120 (pretty huge) and they are both butt smooth!!

Thanks!

Edit!! What about the HPI Sprint 911 Turbo? RTR, out of the box 32 mph, and painted body... would it be a better choice than the pro4?
