Trust me 17.5 is way too slow. In 12th scale we need to at least be like the rest of the world and run 10.5, and mod. 10.5 is the minimum.
With a 17.5 you don't even have to let off the gas to turn!
I will have a 10.5, and nothing slower in my GenX.
Maybe I will just practice by myself, and never get to race. That's OK too.
I think once everyone sees how slow the 17.5's are more people will want to race 10.5.
