They always say a professional RC racer can drive anything and make it look good... so we decided to put that exact theory to the ultimate test!

We recruited Pro RC Racer Cole Ogden to take the wheel of the Sworkz Apollo 2 Eevo—a $770 pre-assembled, Ready-To-Run (RTR) kit. Then, we dropped it straight into two massive, arena-sized events to see what an entry-level car can truly do when wheeled by a factory-paid pro!

The Backstory We’ve spent the last few months thrashing this RTR at several tracks, diving deep into how a pre-assembled kit stacks up against high-end, thousand-dollar race rigs. It’s been a wild ride of ups and downs, but we finally started dialing it in to feel like a true race machine.

As an average-Joe Sportsman class driver, I thought it was starting to feel race-ready—but let's be honest, my driving skills could only take it so far. I needed to know: What is this car actually capable of in the hands of an elite racer?

What You'll See in This Video:

The Pro Test: Watch Cole Ogden push the Apollo 2 Eevo to its absolute limits.

RTR vs. Pro Kit: Can a pre-assembled buggy actually hold its own at a major event?

The Verdict: Cole does us a massive solid here at BeachRC and extracts every ounce of performance from this platform.
