Yes Congradulations to Team Alpha!

Well that is our entry Level car you have there (V103) and it has the same setup as the Viper F1 but there is more room on the viper just in back of the battery slots for the speed controller and receiver and extra weight if needed.

I tested the V103 before sending it to you, The Viper with the same gearing and setup as the V103 and the Viper had more rear traction.

The Spring plate for the Viper is not the same and gives the Viper a little more traction.

The Venom is the next step up when tested it worked better than both.
I can punch the throttle and it takes off straight down the street and with no spin outs and no traction additive at all on the ground or tires - so we will see when I make it down there at the end of the year(your racing seires)
So like they say I guess we will see what we see now wont we!

Just wish I could have made it to the race with the viper and the Venom!
