RE: street racing
Y would ur car get run over...It has far more manuverbilty and accel. Only thing that could be holding u back is
A. u really suck at driving
B. a part or parts are damaged restricting movement or driving abilities.
C. U think ur car can run over there car
D. Ur car has a top speed of a Nikko car and it takes about 4x the amount of time to reach it.(or the car just...isnt good)
E. Ur blind....and maybe deaf
Personlly i am always alert when i am driving in the street cause...sadly its happened to one of my cars....front end totalled.(that women was blind not me...) Now whenever a car come close i quickly pull into my driveway or pick it up. Also people woh watch like to yell WATCH OUT! when i am driving and looking the other way.

RE: street racing
then thers the times when you hear a car so you go to look for it and take your eyes off your car. my street has a curve and i was already close to the curb. went up the curb from the driveway so it hada niec little ramp. i look back at my car and i saw the chassis 3 different times and then land on its wheels.

RE: street racing
It's possible, T-Maxx is meant for offroading. Smartech is meant for onroading. The weight difference is alot. It may not happen all the time, but I think it is possible.

I've tried to race cars on my street but they all get scared and stop or slow down. Drivers get nervous when little tiny cars pull up along side

RE: street racing
well yeah technically its a car...it has four wheels rite??? By no means am i critisizing the fact that its cheap and my r40 can outgun it in everythign cept cheapness. for the budget guy who want that small step from those toy cars from radio shack i am sure it will suffice....But thats not me[>:][8D]
Ive tried to race the 1:1 cars on my street too. i always win cause they dont move till i stop moving. Or i just stop cause they are making me nervous[sm=surprised.gif]

RE: street racing
I am taking my RS4 3 evo to the strip this wednesday. I am going to see what my 1/8 time is. I might put on the TZ turbo engine first just so I can have a chance of beating someone in the long run. I know I will take them off the start but not sure in the end. 1/8 mile is only like 620 feet. From what I see my car stock is so quick. We will see
