So i ordered my first nitro r/c car the other day and should be getting it soon, just figured i'd post on here and see if anyone is really into this or anything.

Note, i am noter really into this lol but it looks like fun


I bought a Traxxas Slayer

Yea ma Nitro cars are so fun. I got a few different cars they are fun as hell to race.

yup, i had a blast with R/C cars for a while.
have a built tmaxx, and a couple on road cars, but the hobby gets VERY expensive, so i kinda stopped.

>


LOL THAT hobby got expensive lol good thing you stopped for something cheaper like a 5FSTE LOL LOL

i have 3 all elecric, s15, 350z, and a evo. drif rc's

>
i spent less on my 5sfte than what i spent on the R/C cars..lol
when i stopped, i had ~4k into the 2 cars and the truck. lmao.

the great thing about a good on road r/c car, is all the suspension theory and stuff transfers over to a real car.

hahaha thats funny, ya it can get pretty expensive that is for sure, i am trying to not get that into it lol

Its one of my very low priority side hobbie, I've had electric cars for ever. I like electric scale rc cars, I have a tamiya tt-01 to just mess around with, and I've been working on a scale custom 06 ford f250, I have the cassis built and the rest planned out but $300 bucks for the parts to finish it is just too much.

my just sits in the closet....i haven't even broke-in the engine yet...it was the 1/8 NITRO celica GT4...quite frankly, they are expensive to work with and you have to have a lot of patient to learn how to properly run the thing

I have a CEN fun factor monster truck, its converted to stadium truck type tires, its fun but i can never get the damn thing to run right, so its just sittin in my garage, CEN is discontinued so its hard to find parts...

i have 2 cars, 1 x nitro 1/10 scale pro-tech 4wd subaru impreza fully tuned with aluminium parts, upgraded engine ,clutch transmission this is the fun toy. then i have hyper 7 pbs 1/6 scale buggy nitro 4wd indestructable machine with too many upgrades and mods from carbon fibre trays,shock towers, carbon brakes digital servo's etc etc this one i actually race in the uk tournements. next on the shopping list is an r/c plane

i just refuse to grow up
