this thread is pointless, imo, its mostly driver that determines the winner of a race.

Anyone could beat me in a race right now, I have a motorless Mugen, I suppose I could push it around the track.
Also a 1/18 Mamba setup with no chassis for it, and a Micro-DT with no tires, hahaha.

It's a Mamba 25 ESC with Hyperion 6000kv motor, I ran it a few times in a Mini LST2 but I'm putting it in to an Xray M18T Pro chassis soon for racing.
It was too powerful in the MLST2, it's gonna be way too powerful in the M18T Pro

Well how about this.. I raced a Hyper 8 last season and was planning on getting an RC8 or Hyper 8.5 for this season. Well, a buddy let me try his 8ight like last monday and I was blatantly faster with it. Once I got used to how sensitive his was, I was able to push much harder than I ever could dream about with my Hyper. So I rush ordered one friday morning and got it yesterday! All I need now is my Go-tech and new steering servo... I can't wait.

The 8ight does not like to be driven around the track on a sight seeing tour, My 8ight drives best when i'm pushing it balls to the walls
