Top ten RC Myths that should be busted?
I thought it would be fun to create a list of "RC Myths" that would be cool to see on Myth Busters.
Example:
When a Sub C cell explodes, it has the force of a 22 caliber riffle, and is therefore lethal.
Or how about this one:
When a friend or loved one dies, if you bury an XRAY chassis with them in the coffin, that person is guaranteed to go to heaven.

Cutting 4 inches off your motor and battery lead wires will make your car noticeably faster.

it's impossible to tweak a silver can motor in such a way it give you more speed or advantage and have it pass the judges at an event.
posible tests
twisting the crank to alter the turn count/timing
majic potions i'e engine oil and such
strenghtening the magnets in some way
others that i dont know of
