sweet, someone else with a pan car, I have two pan car chassis, both from Parma, the viper and the same one you have. I've had it for liek a year and i still need to do the body, shows how much time I've had lately.... Anyway, ya I lvoe them compared to the touring cars. your right, when starting out, they are so hard to drive well, they are so tail happy, and you also gotta love how most of the wheel travel is chassis flex, but they are so crazy fast. I was running on a carpet track, and there was another touring car, and i lapped him all the time, when he was off, I really pushed my car, and was doing consistant 15 second laps, while the pace that won the A-main stock class, was around 23 seconds a lap average. And i was running with a reedy rage stock motor, and a 6 cell of 2000's which i no longer use. Another time i was at a parking lot track, and it was also rather crazy, as I would pass the touring cars in the corner on the outside lane, and keep up or pass teh nitro ones going down the straights, using the same reedy rage motor and those old 2000's. So in brief, I love them and I will never own a touring car, cause they cost more, and post slower times, and are slower accel and top end.
