Well on a 20-foot straight part of track the box-stock Sprint 2 will leave a VTA with 25.5 brushless in the dust. But when you throw in some turns, any veteran VTA driver will quickly pass the box-stock Sprint 2 (esp. when driven by a beginner). In the last 2 weekends my LHS has sold 3 brand new HPI Sprint 2 '69 Camaros. This next weekend is a big on-road race event, the 5th Annual Fall Classic, and the LHS has 2 more brand new Sprint 2's for sale on the shelf.
