TL-01 is my first r/c and i still have it now. it not a perfect car but i must say it is very versatile. it can be used for both touring and rally. my experience is that it exhibits traction roll (maybe due to short arms), hence it cannot take corners as fast as others. straight line speed and acceleration, however is excellent. as a rally car, i haven't tried it yet but it is already set-up for rally.
