Thanks, Kendall.

I see where you're coming from. I think my main concern stems from an Atomicmods advertising video where a suped-up XMOD taps an orange pylon, flips onto its hood, and skids for what looks like a few yards on asphalt.

Maybe I'm beating a dead horse, but it seems like an XMOD with AWD, bearing upgrade, and Stage 2 motor upgrade on Hi Throttle could keep up with a super tricked out XMOD on a circuit racing course with a moderate amount of straight-aways.

But I have to admit, I think the upgrades are really cool because they have taught me quite a bit about electronics and electrical engineering. College physics was quite a few years ago--I don't eveny recall how a brushless motor works, let alone why it out performs a motor with brushes.
