I haven’t been racing that long, but completely agree with this. I held off buying a 1/28 LiPo/brushless car until earlier this year and wish I hadn’t. I should have just gone back to 1/12 pan car instead. The 1/28 LiPo cars are too fast for the smaller tacks around me, and are probably too small on a track of the right size. I think their speed vs size is out of wack for this scale, and AAA power is more realistic.

Can you share more on this? I’ve been racing Mini-Zs for 15 years but not familiar with this. I only run the stock Kyosho saver.
