any one else love rc vechials

i got a gas power savage i love it anypone else intothis

Thinking about getting into R/C heli's and planes. I have a gas powered R/C car that I bought in NYC and I mess around with that every so often. But since I live in Texas now and there is sooooooooooo much open space, time to shoot higher...pun intended.

I have a Losi JRX pro buggy

it has mod motor

hydra drive

Ti tie rods and carbon chasis

Tekin speed controler

Futaba servos.....

It will do a wheelie down the street about 200 yards with the right tweak, and gears.

My little brother and I used to race them... he worked at a Hobby shop it was cool

Im not a huge fan of gas, but they are getting better.

Electric allways starts....................peace

Once upon a time I was pretty well known in my area with the old school RC-10s and RC-10Ts.....:dance:

I was a pretty much straight out the box guy until being invited to a few events where the big guys WITHOUT sponsors helped me shaved the weight off the cars and trucks.

I have some smooth looking trophies from New Jersey, a track in Queens NY and one from Florida. My 15 minutes of fame never reached gas driven but I loved the electric.

I still have my 2 cars and 2 trucks.....plus one old Turbo Optima from the late 80s in mint condition all with custom bodies.

I almost cried when I saw this thread ......wicked !!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

4wheel driven with a chain I later updated to a belt.
I miss those days of trickle charging and then topping them off with a slight pulse.
