MM vs. RM

so i noticed they come rm and mm like mini-z's. rm is pretty useless for mini-zs so im wondering if racers find that to be the case at the races. the motor is closer to the axle due to it shape than a mini-z but its still rm. what have you guys seen?

RM tends to want to spin out easier.I imagine this is also the case with the Mini Z.But I would still like to have a 917 but it is short narrow and rm so it would be the trickiest of all to drive.But once mastered it would be very quick.

I am loving my 917, it feels super fast and I am dropping my quickest laps with it at the moment. It does hop a bit, but once you get to the middle of the battery is calms down and you can really coast into those turns at high speed. I have not run any large tracks yet, but on the wide L and RCP 917 takes it.

it isn't 'useless' but there are more race-worthy, competitive cars with an MM chassis. you need soft hands to make an RM do its thing IMO. they tend to be more precise in cornering if -like nitrojunkie says- you master its advantages.

Corvette is the most capable car of the 4 cars I have driven. They are all MM but all four are very different.
