slow supra

yea I was comparing with my friends our speed with our XMODs until I found out that my supra is slower then all of them with new bats!! the fastest one there is a RSX with top speed motor stage 2 or the blue one, all red suspension, no tierod, AWD, bearings, and bodykit(I doubt that gives more speed). the second fastest one is the skyline with a stage 2 drift motor, yellow suspension, and bearings thats it. mine is as listed below.
y was it so slow? was it the suspension? the tierod? the motor? any help would help

Bearings reduce friction all around the whole chassis. IT makes the chassis a lot more smoother and efficient. Those yellow bushings suck. AWD actually got the car off the line faster (for me it does) I have the limited slip(ball) diff in the back and the gear diff in the front. this way the front will pull more.
I have the supra myself. I just use silver in front, yellow in back, stage 2 white, ball bearings, hard tires. I use some NIMH batteries. they do help, compared to anlkaline batteries NIMH have more punch.
try it out and see what happens. Good luck.

Angelo
