i got 3 gas cars, 1 electric indy car ,and 2 xmods.
i got more but i dont want to get key board cramp or any thing though. So what do you guys have?, and post some pics if ya can!

I would but i dont have any way to at the moment.
 
I personally don't have any. My brothers on the other hand used to have a few pretty cool ones. Electric, I guess, but I always saw them building them and messing with them, so I guess they were some kind of kit maybe.
 
yep some are in kit form when ya buy them and other come put together. And thats with both gas and electric cars.
They sure are fun though!
 
I don't have any but i would like to get one.

Same here. I find that everyone buys the Subaru Imprezza WRC.

Every ne buys the Imprezza because it's so cheap compared to all the other ones. My step bro had the imprezza.
 
Here is my R/C car, I've had it for as long as I can remember. Actually it was a gift for my dad from me and my mom when I was very little, but eventually my dad let me had it after I kept bothering him. You can't tell much in the picture but it has it's share of dings.

My Dad used to race them back around 7 years ago and he used to be quite competitive, but anyway, i own two but only one works now;

HPI SPRINT GTi (electric)

Its a full feature 4WD RC car, but has the dimensions of a GTi. The shorter wheelbase gives the car sharper handling - great for smaller tracks or confined spaces. The factory assembled car comes with race breed suspension, oil filled shocks, 14 ball bearings and a high performance 4WD transmission. Full 190mm wide track, full size wheels and quality slick tyres give it 'Hard-To-Beat' on road performance.

GTi wheelbase of 237mm

Full 190mm wide

Full Sized standard wheels

Full sized standard tyres

Tough chassis

Oil filled shocks

Full ball bearings

Its got a 14 double motor in it and accelerates and handles like a dream. Reccomend it to anyone into electric R/C cars. 👍
 
Too expensive, but I want one.
 
they arent to bad price wise.
you can get an HPI Micro RS4 witch is 1:18 scale for somewhere under $150 if i rember right.

I got one and they go pretty good.
good for startes i ges you could say!
you can take them just about anywhere.
they take 4 AAA size batteries but if you get the rechargable ones and if ya have a fifteen min. quick charger you can charge them in like 3 min. but i dont think its safe to go over 3 min. though.
o and they last quite a while to.:)
 
I do that. I race an electric r/c car around a track at a local sports center ,but I haven't won a trophy yet.

Ho Hum...
 
I have a Tamiya Super Blackfoot and a Tamiya RC110 (Pan car). I'm finishing off both of them for selling purposes, because I don't have the time to play with them anymore, :(. I could use the cash as well.
 
I would like to race one of my RS4's in a comp. but i just havent yet.
 
I want a Gas R/C Car preferably the Savage 21 or Savage 25, or was it SS? One of those that's been my main focus though is the Savage 21...hmm, plum crazy. $500 unfortunelty.
 
well..... Im planning on getting a XMods RC Supra. Those things are interesting.
 
Yeah, I want a Gas RC car but I prolly can't afford one worth getting. I have an electric one but it's really cr*p.
 
I'm saving for a Gas R/C car. I want a T-Max or a Team Losy(sp.)?
My friend has a gas RC car... I jumped a 35 foot double in his backyard 'cause he rides motocross. Oh well... Dreaming...

I have an electric 1/10 scale 1999 Subaru Impreza WRC.
 
I have a 1/10 or 12 scale WRX Rally car, Tamiya TL-01...I just need to join some sort of an RC club in my area so I can race it a bit more. :)
 
has anyone else seen this?

Holy crap! Are those functional??? If so, send me a link, that's a sweet idea.
 
That's awesome! Do you by chance know who makes/manufactures it?
 
Simple physics. You cannot increase the preasure in the combustion chamber of a two cycle engine because all of the ports are open at once. That thing probly blows a lot of unburned fuel out the exhaust pipe.....

It probably is functional, but is mostly for show and coolness factor. :)
 
I've got one of those $20 "Fast & Furious" NSX's from Wal-Mart. Fairly fast for being a cheap thing, I've been thinking of swapping a big fat monster truck motor into it. It's about twice the size of the one in it right now.
