We just sold a Cen 2wd car from our shop but before selling it we broke the motor in and clocked it to see what kind of speed to expect. We clocked ours at 40.1 mph. The motor is easy to tune and start but the handling is very poor. Partly due to the 2wd but there is hardly any metal at all, it even has plastic dog bones. Overall though the car stayed together and isn't bad for the price.
