The Grasshopper is a good car for someone to get a good feel for the track; not too fast or slow, just perfect. Fast enough to have some fun battles with the other Grasshopper. 🏁

This was the 1st 'hobby grade' RC car ever got. (Also the first memorable burns to my index finger and thumb tips from the big white resistor of the mechanical speed control 🤬.)
