I personally would try to find the V2 upgraded but if you can get a V1 for a better deal, go that way.
Thanks, yeah I started to think that since the touring car puts a greater load than a 2wd buggy would. Ended up getting a used v2 tc spec with board upgrade for $105 shipped. At least its claimed to have the board upgrade. LRP told me how to check to see if it did, guess there are 3 black microchips on the board that are not on the normal one.
Cant wait, going from my sphere tc spec back to the regular sphere I noticed a very noticable drop in overall power/punch
