Gotta See ! HPI Drag Race Crash

[looker2756]

I do agree. I find the video kinda amusing. He started in the outside lane & moved over off the line at least 12 feet. That would have been the time to cut the throttle & re-group. His car has/had a much bigger engine & should have won this race. With the 5b model, it is easy to put more power in them than is controllable. This is a common mistake made by many people. Reguardless of track ( paved or dirt ) the over powered cars require more throttle control than most can handle. I have driven them with about every combination in them & Torque equals tire spin which equals crashes or spin-outs. Neither make them much fun, especially in a race of any kind. Mine has done very well racing. Even though they spelled my last name wrong here ...
