it could be a number of different things. my guess is that either the batteries are shot, speedies gone, but it is most likly shotie wireing(or some thing like that)

if it isn't thoes it could be any thing even radio interference.

i think it could also be the placement of all your electronics.
Ive heard that if some things are too close together or others components are touching, it can cause things to go off by themselves.

Done the exercise removed radio gear, reciever, servo ,speed control replaced with a ko servo, ko reciever, LRP sppedie and a mars radio control. To my suprise the stupid thing is still doing it.

All conponent are free of each other and even laid all the new components outside the car and it still does it. I am at a loss.

check the capacitors on the motor are alright. If they are dead that is probably causing the problem.
