RC Driving Style
I have gotten lazy and spoiled by driving my 4wd Storm buggy and Cybermaxx. I took my rc10gt out for a spin the other day and I forgot how hard it was to drive in comparison. So I put 15 tanks of fuel through it in the last few days on my track, working on consistency and reducing spastic over-correction. I am now almost as fast around the track as my cyber (within 1/2 sec per lap), but forget about staying with the storm.

I have no doubt that I will be a better driver overall from learning to drive the rc10 better. Everyone should probably start out with a ST!
 
ST's are definately harder to drive, throttle control is a must. If you can drive a ST well, you will rock at a 4WD vehicle.
 
Nitro dave is right.. The throttle control is hard.. I was driving my GT this summer and it was a blast but... You have to take it easy, You can't like Nail it like you can with a buggy or maxx. But there fun as anything else . Just a lil harder lol

Agreed! I raced my 4wd buggy almost exclusively last year. thinking I would concentrate on it that I would get better. This spring I got out the GT and WOW! It took me a little bit to settle down enough to keep it straight when on the throttle. I forgot how much fun it is!
