    It’s good to be able to hear the cars when they’re driving for a comparison of the sound.

    Thanks for the fun video, it would be cool if you ran them all on a 540 silver can on 2s. My local club runs a 540 class and pretty cool really balances out the field from vintage to modern buggies. Love the track, wish I had the space.

    I can't remember the Hot Shot being that nimble. I had a Super Sabre and it never cornered like that. The XLS out cornered most cars, except the PB Mini Mustang. Cool video buddy, loved it.

    I would have suggested a modern ~$250 2WD buggy RTR shootout, but there's not enough of those currently on the market to do that. It would literally just be the highly engineered Serpent SRX-2 MM RTR vs the powerful but woefully outdated Traxxas Bandit VXL, and we all know how that will go down - the SRX-2 would completely destroy the Bandit and the Traxxas Fanboys will get salty.

    To test the sterling out on the buggys, you should do some weaving in ñ out off the cones.

      LapTracker app. I was planning on getting a LapMonitor unit and I talked with the company about getting one on the show. The owner was happy to send one for review but he never came back to me in the end so I found the Laptracker app.

    Gavin,liking this track comp for the cars. Can you do a timed lap/laps board like Topgear?. You could even give the driver a name, rather than"The Stig" how about " The Git" just a suggestion.

      I love my Hotshot. It’s in need of some love but in this condition I can drive and enjoy it. I have everything to restore it but I keep putting it off as it will then become a shelf queen and I’m not ready to give up driving it just yet.

    could you add something to outline the track like a garden hose or long piece of rope Just an idea for you if you have not already thought of it 👍 it would make it easier for us viewers to see were the actual track is.

    • @RCKickschannel
      @RCKickschannel  4 роки тому +1

      100% yes Paul! The cones work well for me but don’t work on camera. The plan is to change to a 5cm rope for edging. The issue is the bill is almost £200! I’m holding off to see if these videos are popular. If people watch them enough, I will save up and place an order for it. 👍🏻

    That was pretty predictable, would like to see era correct match ups, like the Frog vs the Kyosho Scorpion . The modern buggies with the right tires will always outpace the classic buggies. Maybe see some of those early 90s tamiyas like the Dyna Storm and Super Astute .

    • @VestedUTuber
      @VestedUTuber 4 роки тому

      Engineering happened. RC car bodies have become a tuning option now, rather than just an aesthetic choice. Like them or hate them, aerodynamically optimized cab-forward bodies are here to stay, at least on the racing side of things.
