used to have a traxxas nitro 4-tec

very very fast, but i didn't ever have time to use it, and it's an expensive toy just to leave laying around doing nothing.

nice, i've got a Tamiya ford focus nitro car which i've just had tuned, goes like the clappers it does.wouldn't mind a truck or buggy of some sort nitro or electric.

both my nitro cars were impulse buys, would deffo love to have another, but would buy second hand this time.
i think next time i want a monster truck rather than a racing car as i have a big field next to my house.

i've hit the floor on a couple of occasions on a 50cc scooter, 3 times on a kwak er5, once on a ninja 636, and once on an R1.
the R1 hurt the most and i was on crutches for a month and a half. so there ya go, scientific proof that big boys bikes hurt more to crash
