First off I should note I have yet to run the car as I'm waiting for a receiver and handset to arrive. That being said, on building the car it's very apparent that compared to my Subaru brat, Grasshopper and Hornet, the suspension on this works much better when dropping it at angles, etc. I've also watched countless videos and the design of this combined with suspension allows quick recovery over jumps, which is a must for me as that's how I plan to use it. I'll update or add another review when I've tested the car thoroughly. Hopefully in the next few weeks.
