I just purchased an SE Auti TT and noticed two things...
You have to use the clip that comes with the motor upgrade ( and not the stock clip ) in order to use the better motors.
And I also noticed that the reverse is really sluggish.
Is this normal or do I have something wrong with my car. It really goes slow in reverse compared to forward. Does this have anything to do with lower torque in an SE?
This is normal. Reverse doesn't have the throttle range of forward on the SEs. It never did. I suppose the manufacturer never thought you would be racing in reverse, lol.
