Can anyone who knows the RC18 series tell me if it's possible to reduce the speed on this thing? Unlike so many others, I am not looking for extreme speed. I just want to be able to use the car and not lose control of it! I know some cars/transmitters have a "training mode" that keeps the speeds low until you turn it back to standard driving mode. So far, I've not seen that feature on mine.

Any input about my options would be appreciated.

Turndown the throttle hi point on the radio. This should let you find a speed you are comfortable with.
