Definitely bring that RC S out. I want to pick one up and then we could set up cones around the parking lot and race
I want to get an electric one that way I have one of each.

Nitros definitely have the speed, but God, the upkeep will kill ya.

I've had this one for over 3 years and I can't tell you how much money it eats. I did sit for 2 years, which is why it cost about $300 to get it going again. I could have prob just bought a new one

+1 on the racing, I think you'll be hooked once you see it. You really can make them look however you want them to if you have enough patience.

Here's some pics. I couldn't find my exact wheels but these Works are really close. I had to paint the inside silver to make them match. These are -3mm offset and I have some that are -6mm. I even found some fake carbon fiber vinyl for the hood.





Here's the -6mm on the rear

Nitro is much more fun, but electric is easier and cheaper for sure.

Yeah I wouldn't care, Keep in mind, this took a lot of work, and you couldn't open it up all the way because the engine is brand new, but you could take it for a spin.

Also check this out!!!
