RC cars (especially electric ones) have really good pickup coming out of corners because the torque curve is flat. i used to race RC cars, 
something heat motor can't do

RC stuff is amazing. I have a bunch of RC stuff. 6 or 7 planes ranging from 2-7.5 foot wing spans, a boat, a heli, and a HPI Evo car (similar to the one in the video except it runs on nitro) . People are usually amazed by them. Most people think of walmart toys when they think RC. I know all about hitting a bump at 50mph + with my little car. Its awsome to watch it sail though the air then flip and roll. It just sucks fixing it.
Great video!

I hate to revive an old thread, but I just picked up a 1/10 scale S2000 body by HPI and the thing COMES WITH s2ki stickers.
Pretty crazy and cool
(yes i did a very crappy job of cutting it out. It will probably be toast in about a week anyway! )

I think the Rc would have done better with an S2000 Body
