Nitro cars/trucks who has them.

Heres my beasty, usually runs foam tyres but has its road surface tyres on atm, not half as wide or aggressive looking. Basically a 1/8th scale Picco engine in a 1/10th Titanium & Carbon fibre Chassis. Goes through a clutch in about 80 mins of use.

Yes yes i know its abit geeky :worried: but 80mph in 5 seconds is quite cool :tongueout:
 
In reality you'll never find the space or courage to do 80mph with but listening to it go through the gears is pretty exciting for a toy car.
 
Aww man... wish i hadnt read this lol

Used to have just about the whole range of HPI stuff, a few Schueys and a couple of Losi's lol

Managed to kerb my addiction and sold them for far less than i paid...

Now i want a new one... damn you :tongueout:

... and damn you Ben... that rig is awesome :smiley: want :worried:
 
My uncle works with Losi and Horizon Hobby, he's had a garage full of every type of RC car you could think of for years, and yet I've never really been into it!

The cars in this thread look good though, I'm liking that truck Chappo!
 
cheers Adam,

took them out through the local spinney (woods) this morning with my Nephew, got to say we had some great fun with them.
 
got a nitro mugen seiki prime 12, it's pretty old now and I haven't touched it for years
it was good at the time though, had a 2 speed gearbox and would do about 50-60mph when running properly (needs constant tuning and fixing though)

Ha ha not liking the price that quad is more fun and about the same price lol
 
i had the HPI 4wd 2 geared nitro drift car an it was amazin fun, played with it for hours an hours, bt then when it came to gettin a real car, i sold it for money towards wheels etc and it used to cost an arm an a leg in fuel, an parts etc.

ive recently brought another rc driftcar but this time i got an electric one as i think myself there alot less hassle. took me back a few years an i keep it in my boot now charged up with few power packs, ready for those days me n my mates are chillin at the pub, or at a meet or whatever.
