On-road BL project

That's exactly why I didn't go with a traditional electric stadium-truck setup. Just about all the common ones have the motor in the rear. The only logical choice then was to convert a Nitro one. Even with some of the weight in front of the rear axles you still burn up the tires. But at least you don't have the wheelie problem.

It's a whole other world driving the Jato vs the Revo on a track. On the Revo, I have to tap the brake or at the very least not accelerate on the corners, otherwise I have too much understeer (yes I know an RD quickturn or center diff would cure this). When I corner with the Jato, I actually increase the throttle so I drift around the corner. When executed right, it works very well - now only if I could do it all the time. If not done right, I just spin out. It takes a lot more finesse IMO with 2WD.
