    That's because it's not stock, out of the box, like the Traxxas.

    True, but what does that worthless Traxxas cost? My point was, if all you want to do is haul ass in a straight line, you can do it for less than half the jack, way less.

    Yep he holds the World Record, now Team Associated is helping him reach the 200 mark. All of his records are with Associated based vehicles.

    ^^^I wouldn't be surprised if Associated came out with some sort of answer to that. Then again, I don't think any of their cars have "speed ratings" from the factory.

    I don't think they would, AE is more focused on track performance than just haulin ass in a straight line. Anyone can make an rc go fast.

    Looks nice. Wonder if it fits the SC10 better than the slash bodies?
