[Pitst3r X4]

Sweet! a good place to run em' is on Basket Ball Courts. I got mine up to bout 85 odd kmh in like 50 metres when the 2 speed wasnt fine tuned so i can imagine how much faster it'll go when ive tweaked the gears!

I enjoy a bit of electric off-road RC cars. I currently own a heavily modified Traxxas Rustler. Under the shell she has a 4000 mAh NiMH LRP battery, HPI RF-1 radio gear, LRP AI Electronic speed controller and Fusion modified 12 turn motor. I also have a Swallow AC/DC 2 charger. I'll post some pics when I get a chace.

[Shing]

I used to be into all this stuff. But I'm selling all my gear to fund these bikes.

Anyone interested in a LST2 good condition for 400 posted, little more for the further away places.

Or a Brushless mini t? Goes like stink!!

Maybe interested in a 1/16 CEN 4WD roller?

PM me if anyone is interested.

 

[headsmess]

the grave digger , blackfoot, clod buster and the bull head were the ****

except the electric part...

nitro anyday, but try finding an os fs21/40-cx version...4 stroke torque...there available...at a price...

and will still hit over 30grand rpm

 

[DvDRip]

who's got a micro-T? just wanna know how they hold to off road abuse?
they look like a good cheap way to get in on the RC fun,

also what would be a reasonable starting budget for an off road nitro truck? looks like one hell of an expensive hobby, just from looking around a bit it looks like I've gotta drop about $600 to get something half decent, what you guys think? and for the record I'm not gonna spend that much on one anytime soon, just like to know how cheap an off-road nitro can be had

 

[foolsp33d]

IMO Micro T=indoor only=crap outside...

its a VERY expensive hobby man! $600 might get you a cheap complete kit, or possibly something decent second hand..

expect to spend about $1200 for a complete good setup new off the shelf.. thats radiop, car, fuel, batteries, etc. Then there is learning how to tune, breaking it in, replacing bushings with bearings, changing gear ratios, adjusting gearboxes, fixing trims, ITS ALL SUCH A HEAD F#!@!lol

Electric FTW!
