theres a really good RC circuit at Silverstone, the largest permant indoor circuit in the world i think. They also have F1 and rally simulators that you can have a go on might be worth a trip for the MK meet outing or something?
and a mate of mine has an original VW baja bug shell that hes restoring for his petrol RC
SO COOL cant believe how quick those things are!!

i know! all i could afford was a focus rally car from argos, and i destroyed that! mate of mine had a 4x4 monster truck one (twice the size of said focus) and doing the whole, "lets drive towards each other and we'll turn at the last minute!!!!!"
yeah…ok we did that and he went right and i went left…..do the maths!

Chuck Norris doesn't work out on the Total Gym, Total Gym works out on Chuck Norris.
Even after muting "Walker, Texas Ranger", you can still hear Chuck Norris's victims screaming
Scientists did not in fact split the atom, Chuck Norris just roundhouse kicked it.
Chuck Norris destroyed the periodic table because the only element Chuck Norris recognizes is the element of suprise

I always wanted one, there was a shop in central bristol and i always used to go and look at the escort cossie in blue and yellow with the michelin stickers, never got one though :-(
however some guys close to me has got a really quick petrol one, which i found is great for my dog, she chases it and chases it and chases it!
ones now on my list so rather then get fit walking dog, i can sit on a bench with a six pack and let her chase the car round the field for a couple of hours!
sorted ;-)

i belive losi or shumacher now do a 50mph out the box
also my drift set up pureten witch cost a fourtune but was worth it was one off the top boys at my local club had plenty off people wonting my car as it was perfectly balanced, again dry cell
i had a staduim truck hpi rush evo which my best m8's rescued off me i tore that thing apart needs some tlc, nitro powered and clocked at 39mph
about 2 years ago i found love again with rc's and tryed to get hold off a shumacher menace 70+ out the box 4x4 very nice bit off kit, in the end i could not track a new one down as they had discountued them, i settled for another staduim truck
traxxis jato 3.3 rwd and timed just right will pull a wheely from 3-5mph upto 60ish even threw the gearchange, tops out at 72 i,ve been told i have tryed to follow and get a rough idea off mine, but never had a fast enough car to keep up with it lol,
0-60 is something stupid around 4 seconds
currently awaiting my m8 to fix the my old rush his now got as he reckons he can keep up with mine when its done lol
i not used the jato this year its abit to late for nitro cars now as its to cold in the day, and can crak the heads, but i might just dig out the pureten but i will need new diff 1st lol

my m8's hyper 7 can't think who make them on top off my head, its 1/8 alot heavyier and will make traction on grass leaves mine for dust
this is a jato
- YouTube
ingnore the 75 i not watch whole vid i know 73 is just about possible with 30% fuel and not rear spoiler, with the spoiler on it will just about 65 as quoted from box but thats with 15%
personaly i use 20% with a slight tune and new plugs regular,
there pretty low maintaince
how are the 2 stroke buggers to look after then, often thought about upper to 1/8 purely after a few seconds on full plit there so far away barely see a 1/10 lol,
years ago there was a 1/6 club on the seafront, racing stocks i always wonted a bash back then, but it was so boring compared to the 1/10 touring circuits we had around at the time, now we only got one club this way its a dead hobbie since the play station

if anyones into rc's and wont to learn to drift with one unless you have the money which you do really need, just lock the diff's back and front(blue tack) and some abs wheels is the cheapest way to start but will drain bats and sound like poo at same time
