I think the rc10 is a .15 engine am I right? The 1/8 scale buggy I own GS STORM with GSb01 .21 engine 3.5 cc with claimed 2.3 hp. With a speed gun we clocked it @ 58mph(dont know the conversion) on dirt (dont know on pavement) I'm sure with a 2-speed and some different gear ratio it could probably reach like 65+ this is my guestoment. These 1/8 scale buggies are not really for top speed but exceleration in a short space before jumps. The most awesome features about 1/8 buggies is the shear jumping power and controlled flights. This things are tuff as nails. All in all the RC10 on a dirt BMX track (my opinion dont own one) will be blown away by my storm and you would probably break your toy trying to keep up!
