It was REALLY bad at a local concrete track that is known for having great natural traction. Just couldnt keep the back end from swinging out. I ordered an LTC-R from my local hobbyshop but it seems the warehouse is out of stock too so I was thinking of maybe exchanging the order for a Mazda 6 or MazdaSpeed 6. What do you recommended? Wait for the LTC-R or try a 6 body? Ive never tried a 6 body, i tend to stray from the norm (one reason i liked the DNA2 so much. It handled really well, always planted but I like trying new stuff too).
I would start with the Mazdaspeed 6, it's just a good all around body. If you want something... "different". Try the HB subaru type b. It's very similar to the mazdaspeed, just a little smoother.
