Pretty much stock except for the 5.5 hp MMR heli engine.[8D] Very fast.

Kinda hard to put into words how fast it really is. Let's just say it gets the heart pumping!

Let's see if the new tires hook up and if my Benz can give you a run for your money....

They are doing about 50... The acceleration is not that of a 10th scale, it's a lot more realistic....

Brian, I'm still working on a good way to mount a speed sensor on a 5th scale....

Check out http://www.limodelracers.org/ tomorrow afternoon. One of the club members(Doug) takes video of some of the races. We're expecting a few 5th scales so you'll see what she can do! Look under videos, under July 2nd.
Hopefully you'll see my Vette in front of a certain Benz!!!
