If there is high bite - my cars are next to unbeatable.... If I can drive it..

That being said the car I think is a little harder to drive - I feel like the car is much faster than I can drive it. Sometimes I have trouble mentally keeping up with how quickly it responds. To me this is a much better feeling than thinking that I am pushing a car past its limits and over driving it - which is how I've usually felt in 1/10 off-road.
so this car keeps surprising me, I have to throw out some of what i just said:

I won the reedy race format at my track last night. The track had a new layout with very little grip. I am the only guy running Yokomo and I was the only guy with grip

my car was very easy to drive fast.
