It was very slow going at first one truck did not work at all out of the box. I was young and eager, to find out what was wrong. My father brought home a small set of precision screwdrivers... i got that big rig running tip top. Faster than the indy racers. My love affairs with cars began that day, the rest is history. Today I am an electrical engineer with a penchant for old skool jeeps. With all electric race systems you have to be patient.., tweek them a bit, adjust power supplies..keep it clean track & car. You live and you learn still for the record it did not get any better than TCR. The Race is ON!!
