I'm glad that I got the extra thick body. This thing spends as much time on its lid as it does running. A narrow SC track width, high center of gravity, and grabby tires don't go well together.

Finally took the E-GT out for a run.

Leaves kept getting wrapped up in the suspension and dogbones. Here are some that flung inside.

Having never driven a mid-motor, RWD vehicle, it is definitely different. Even with the Trenchers, it doesn't have near the traction of a rear motor car. Other than that, it seems much more balanced than a regular 10T.

It's probably worth noting that this truck has a 12T 550 motor in it. Some of the traction problems may be torque related.

While waiting for the eclipse, I've been in the back yard stirring the dust with my newest F150 toy.

I've geared it up a bit and running 4s, it's nearly as fast as my buggies :D -- although, it doesn't jump as well. :lol:

Made an effort to make one more run before the rain.
Didn´t make it...
The second the cars were put down on the track the rain started.
We run these cars a lot and they needed a good cleaning anyway. :)
