Too bad its only 1/10th scale otherwise it would be devilishly fast :evil5:

That last picture is of the 2spd tranny it shifts using a combination of one way bearings and a centrifigul clutch.

When I first got the kit the company forgot to include one of the differentials so I put it together and it was FWD for a week while I waited for them to ship the other diff :D

It handled a lot better when I finally got that diff and it was AWD like intended :D

I really want one of those... I love it but would rather put that money into my real car.

Same here in fact I havent spent a slimy dime on RC cars since about Dec 99. It was more of a hobby I had through middle school and high school. That RC car I have is at least 4 years old right now. Eventually after I get through college I will probably get back into it when I can I afford to do both real and RC :D

Until then all extra funding goes into the k-car :D

I need to buy gas for my RC car. :( $30 for a gallon. I have a 4wd stadium truck. These are quite fun especially in construction areas well for my off road truck might suck for the street cars ;)

I always wanted a nitro car but for some reason I never managed to get one :(

I have had my share of RC cars and I must say off road is no fun in FL. Its really hard to find interesting landscapes to run on otherwise off road would rock. I used to have a buggy and it got boring just running through grass and peoples yards.

I like my on road car becasue it is a lot faster and I prefer the more realistic looks. So far I have had three on road and one off road (and driven plenty of my friends off road cars). My favorite is the HPI RS4 I posted pics of and its the only one I still have in one piece :evil5:

However 4wd donuts kick ass in an R/C car. did one in a dirt lot and could not see a thing . It was at night and I even made my own LED hedlights and tail lights. No brake light operation. To much hassle for now. I painted my body clear. :haha:
