are yall f***** me?! This stuff looks crazy. You mean these RC cars actually run the 1/4 mile and all? What are some ballpark times? How much $$$ do these things cost?

I had an HPI racing, with a Prelude body. I had it all hooked up with parts. Mine went 0-70 in like 3 seconds.

Not the 1/4 Id burn the engine before the end. the 1/8 with the 2 speed tranny you could hit in about 6 im guessin in his car we'll find out thursday. We race in the touring class. i thought about jacking up the suspension to run the indoor rally corse here.

i miss my rc10 tc3 rc car, i still have it but only used it no more than ten times, i kept having problems with it first my motor blows up then my novak speed control fried which is supposed to handle any type of motor, it's probably because i installed it wrong, one day i'll get it fixed but right now i'm saving money for my car

most of the cars are full time awd. Great traction, 4 wheel independent suspension, adjustable castor, camber, toe, sway bars, shock oil, shock pistons, springs, shock angles, tire compounds. "stock" motors in these touring cars are good for 25-30 mph with good gearing and modified wind motors are good for 50 or so mph on 6 cells. Double the voltage, it doubles the rpm. Modified motors spin upwards of 50,000rpm on 6 cells I REALLY used to be into this stuff, but damn, they cost almost as much as real cars LOL

One of my friends had an Accord on a 4WD chassis. He cut the rear drive belt and made it FWD lol. It would do some crazy spins in the parking lot.
