Which car is tha fastest stock, somebody told me it was the Acura, but I got a Toyota Supra, and it really fast, but I got stage 2 motors, lights, new rims and tires and some other stuff,
Is thurr any mods that can be done to xmods only using household materials???

The cars are all the same, stock. If you have the stage 2 motors, try getting IC-3 batteries. They will give you a ton of extra torque and speed vs. alkalines or other rechargeable batteries. As far as household items, if you get IC-3 batteries with a stage 2 motor, you will need to superglue or silicone adhesive your tires to the rims or they will fly off.

ight, so wat R IC-3 batteries, I ain't ever heard of them??
whurr can U buy these, does Radio Shack have them?
I was askin which one was faster because somebody told me that the Acura is lighter than all other cars and that the skyline and supra are heavier.

How well your car is screwed together will have a bigger impact on speed than the weight difference between body styles. I have the Supra, and it has held up well to severe punishment. The Skyline looks like it would have the most room to add more cells inside the body, if that's your thang.

Does regular tire glue, like the stuff you use on nitro cars work?

Oh, I just thought of this. Use super glue that has a solvent pack with it. Then you can remove the tires w/o killing them. I also heard that RS is coming out with a Lightning (for you aussie guys, it's kind of like a big pickup with the Pursuit/Falcon GT/GT-P motor).
