The RC Car should reach its max speed much more faster than a robot, due to its mass.

But most RC cars don't have two CIMs driving them. This robot is roughly 1/4 the weight of a "normal" FRC robot, and has half the power (From what I've seen, most teams use 4 CIMs). Thus, it has roughly twice the power-to-weight ratio of most robots, and probably accelerates quite nicely.
