My bud has a Stadium truck that he drives every now and then. Once he was haulin *** down my drive way and clipped the trampoline leg and snapped the tire off. Lmao I was geeking out cause it was like brand new.

He also has a 3 foot Rc Boat. I havent got a chance to see him run that yet. But it looks bad to the bone.

Ive wanted to get into that stuff my self. Just dont have the funds right now unfortunately.

I got a nitro t-max gas r/c car. I have had it for 4 years and put 3 engines on it. Its a very expensive hobby with fuel rangin from $25-$30 a gallon but very fun. Also get some spare tires cause you will need them!!!!! I burn through a set of tires atleast once a month if not sooner. Depends on the road that I run it on. Havent plauyed with it in a couple of months though. Its gettin to cold and its not that great to run one in the cold air.

Had an rc-10 when I was a kid. Loved that thing. Had multiple motors, gears, tires, suspensions, etc.................

This thread makes me want another. Damn you....................[:@] Now I have to justify the cost.

I have an HPI Savage. That thing is pretty nice and fast. Other than that the rest are electric. They are a lot of fun, can be expensive, and a headache if you can't get it tuned correctly(nitro cars)!
