      Yeah they definitely upped their game from the muscle truck and muscle car. That being said those both look pretty good in person too. I was also surprised about how well it did off road. I expected to put it in my backyard and have it just bogged down and have to go somewhere else. It actually handled it all really well. It handles on road reasonably well also as long as you don't have any unreasonable expectations for it :-)

    • @DoRC
      @DoRC  Před rokem +1

      To be fair the surface I was driving out was far from the ideal surface for this. It's a rally car really is designed for smoother off-road surfaces.
      That being said I do agree that it's use cases are fairly limited. It's not great for on-road it's not great for real off-roading so it is kind of a niche product. I think you could fix that though with different tires and a different body for either situation.
