What We Like:
The Sport 3 is a solid chassis – I’ve run quite a few cars on this platform and they’ve all been great. Add this bad ass Porsche body and, more importantly, correct narrow-front/wide-rear tires and you’ve got yourself a real winner.

What We’re Not Sure About:
The standard brushed setup is probably the best performer, especially if you’re going 3S. The FLUX on 3S is a bit scary, especially on tires that aren’t correct for a particular surface (like these might be). That just leads to a lot crashes and will definitely leave you upset at the final condition of that beautiful body.
