Oh yeah Carbon Fiber Disc Brakes too :)

Thats sweet. Where would I go to get started with one. I take it you custom built it, right.

Yeah, I have an offroad Traxxas Nitro Rustler, which is pretty hopped up, but I'm sort of looking to buy an onroad car also. But right now I'd rather dump the money into my real car.

BTW, your mugen is sweet!

COOL, I GOT A HPI NITRO RS4-2 TOURING CAR, BASICALLY STOCK RIGHT NOW SINCE I JUST GOT INTO THE RC SPORT

Heh u buy a kit and build it.. Heres some great links..

www.hpiracing.com Click on RC Forum.. Or just check out the kits they have... I brought my car out to the tracks last saturday nite.. Boi everyone was looking.. They were hella amazed and i put on a show! Over 100 ppl watched me perform.. And i also ran against a SP Engineering supra :D Estimated 550 Hp.. And i beat it with my RC .. Hehehheh...

ive got one too

kyosho pure ten spyder series
gas powered
4wd

mods are:

2 spd transmition
oil filled shocks
steel slotted brake with kevlar pads.
and i lowered it to roughly 1/6 an inch off the ground with body on

I've been wanting to get one, but I can't find any Civic bodies so I haven't got one. I was big into RC boats a while back. Built my own dual motor two speed tranny for one. It jumped waves like nothing......

I found CIVIC bodies...
 

Now once I read enough to figure out what I want I'll be good to go. Anyone have any suggestions? I though about gas powered but they are EXPENSIVE!

i nkow they are damn expensive, almost want to sell/ trade mine for a vafc or flywheel for a prelude

Gas is expensive, but you don't have to buy expensive batts and chargers. Plus you can just re-fuel and drive instead of waiting to charge.

YEah I though about that. That's what always sucked when I had my boat.

I' think I've narrowed it down. Either the HPI RS4 2 or the HPI RS4 Rally. Not sure which one I want. I like the idea of offroad without the nasty stadium truck look. Not to mention it comes with a Subaru Impreza WRC body. But I can get Civic body for the RS4 2. Too many decisions....

Oh and check this out.

An R/C Car that goes 100 MPH! And it does a 360 in the air and lands on its wheels (unintentional).

Those cars are cool. I have a Duratrax Maxium ST stadium truck w/ .12 engine. I wish i could get a road car but all we have are grave roads in my area.

Here Mike

Here Im posting pics for a friend..

2 Speed Tranny Mike =]

Another..

thats weak, j/k i thought u broke your car.

*AHEM* ouch, I like my stadium truck.

Neh, but seriously, I would get an RS4 pro 2 or 3, or maybe a TC3, all are good cars w/ readily available hop-ups.

Haha chris those are old pictures.... My car is still outa order.. Need new pistons and sleeve and new rod.. From an accident it got overrevved..

hehe i spanked my friends 300zx n/a yesterday in my rc, they hit a relfector, lost control and slide 25 feet in the grass. still cleaning the ****er off.

Ive been looking at getting one the last couple weeks.. but I wanna get a turbo for my car and dont really want to spend the money...

VN-TEC your mugen is hella sweet man..

i have a traxxas rustler myself, can i modify this thing to a honda body? i mean, would it be more advisable to just start out new instead?

man i flipped my rc today real bad, i drove it about 100 yards away from me, turned it around and floored it towords me, i hit second gear and was right baout the top of my rpm band when i shifted over the crown in the road, hit a reflector, and tumbled, i was just watching 500 bucks rolling around on the ground, i didnt think i hurt anything untill later, at my car club meeting, we all brought our rc's out, and mine was locking up when i made hard rights, ****ing shit man, now i godda pull the front end apart and see what i broke. not to metion i lost my belt that spins the front tires. rwd in a little car like that isnt enough tires spinning to keep it under controll.

Ouch. That's a good chunk of money rolling around.

500 bucks.......OOOOUUUCCCCHHHH!!!!:D

yeah it wasnt pretty, i think i have 90% of it fixed, just need a fwd belt for it. the good thing about them, it superglue fixes most everything

Hey now.. I over revved my engine and forked up my pistons.. Now i need a new engine that costs 180.00 :(

damnit, my steeting servo is twitching, thats not a good thing, but my steering is fixed other than that :D

Uh Oh... Thats not good and is a pain to get rid of.. Make sure NO METAL PARTS ARE TOUCHING EACHOTHER.. What i mean by that.. Is make sure there are no metal pieces banging against eachother unless its screwed down on eachother.. Because the rattling and touching of the metals interferes with the radio system soo bad u have no idea.. And if u dont believe me try it out urself and u will end up glitching at 50 mph right into a sewage hole :D

Also if you have exposed Antenna Wire.. Stick it into some fuel tubing.. It insulates it.. Also never ever cut the Antenna wire.. Once u do u screw it up for life and u cant fix it!

I used to have a really nice one..

But one day, when I was doing laps around the pool, a wrong move and it went for dive..


That was a sad day.

;(

lol, that sucks man. hydro locked a r/c car.

Haha! Dont give up on the sport! Gives u an excuse for an engine swap :D

yerah im trying to find a good reason to get a mt12 turbo :D.

woo hoo, i ported and polished the engine today (thanx thong) its nice....... vroooom
