Review: For what this RC car costs it really performs - I was hesitant about purchase as many claimed that the car was not fast. I disagree, it is plenty fast and fun to drive. I have not run the drift tires and rims that it came with. I installed some cheaper rims and rubber tires. Well it still drifts pretty well with the higher grip tires. I’ll eventually put a brushless ESC and motor in it. I was disappointed that the car only came with a NiMH battery. I have not had one of these for quite awhile. I decided to change the battery connector on the car to accept a 5 Amp 2S battery and the performance was very noticeable and some increase in speed. Fun entry level RC drift/road car for a great price. Also, love the remote control, good quality. Only wish it had a speed adjustment so younger kids could drive it.
Review: Brilliant - This car comes ready to go right out the box I got the blue one by the way and I'm feeling it this car is so much fun an for under two hundred bux its a steal. The quality is excellent the car and the mechanics are proper and it runs very smooth. Its a drift car so its not necessarily fast but thats okay your drifting with it not participating in a traditional race. Redcat has one thats a competition level car for another two hundred bux but I'm not competing with anyone so this one is just fine for someone like me. I'm still learning how to drift and this seems to be the right car for that. A painted surface seems to be a good surface to run the car on with drift wheels it should'n't wear them down too quickly and R/C is a good company so replacement parts are a sinch to get if needed.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does it come with a flux capacitor?**
A: They no longer include ANY “Flux Capacitor(s)” in a stock or modified version these days. They do, however, include “Piston Return Springs” in every current stock model and the Upgraded models have Ceramic Springs for less friction! Yeah yeah

**Q: Can I use a 2 cell lipo on the stock motor and esc?**
A: yes

**Q: Does it come with a remote?**
A: YES!

**Q: Does it come with a painted body?**
A: Yes, it is a colored body. In my case red. You only can overpaint it from the outside if you want. Not like the transparent bodies which are painted from the inside. Hope this was helpful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ First on road and it's a blast!
*by N***K on January 16, 2020*

Great rc overall! Had a blast getting the drift down. Was my first run and was night so cant wait to run in daylight. First on road rc but seems to be built really well and cant wait to run my 2s lipo in it...hopefully get alittle more zip. Also bought a set of rubbers with white rims...not to mention I think give the car a whole new look. Also car seems to be easily upgradeable. I kno its early so I'll update in a few weeks. That being said definitely cant knock it and worth the money.
