Using your head and your talent to make run time and not "use up" the tires, and not get the motor hot. "Everybody today just hammers the throttle". Very few real drivers left. (don't kill the messenger, that's what i was told.)
This is why I like 12th scale. Throttle heads give up quick when they can't get the car to run well. Gotta learn to squeeze it.... But sorta' to go back on topic the response of 4CM has been favorable at my track by those that tried it. Bottom line tires last, less weight=better cornering, less squirming around and the top-end speed is very, very close. And, oh yeah nice to share packs if you run 12th.
