My brother wants a fast car. I have a limited 200$ budget... I prefer go gas
but wouldn't mind a fast battery car.
Any reccomandations? We want to be able to jump dunes and take it to go real
fast in the park....

My Slow charger's output is 0.86va and the Battery is 1400mah.
So how long do i charge it for ?
And how do i work this stuff out ?
Thanx in advance ;-)

Thanks in advance
