in high school one day this one kid just bust out a remote control car, one of the little ones, and starts doin laps around and in between the desk...teacherwas heated and didnt really know who it was
 
They are real cheap now.

I think Ive seen them for like $25

No more than $60 for sure.

I had one that was a truck on one side and a car on the other with big wheel and you could flip it with the remote. Battery life sucked back in the day... idkabout now tho

. But, yeah those things are nojoke. It's alot better when you have multiple people racing. They are so loud too. Even gas�for that is expensive, it's like�$26�for a gallon of bluenitro

those 1/5th scale r/c's are beasts but a little over the top for me i always like the 1/10th scale...i always wanted to shove a .21 in 1/10th chassis witha 2-speed and let it rip
 
i had 2 nitros back then both gas just gave em away because it takes time to maintain and keep em clean. Had a hpi nitro rs4 and a savage 21. The hpi nitro rs4went around 40mph out the box. Its a nice hobby if you have time.
 
I still have mine from years ago. Was a pretty cool hobby, but it got old real fast. I got mine for about 100 or 200, i dont remember, was a birthday gift frommy cousin. Got me a battery truck or something, well, the shell was a truck, and it had real nice shocks, both on and off roading. Went to about 35mph or soout the box. Didnt do much with it. Have it sitting in my closet in a box under a bunch of other boxes
 
I've always owned electric..Tyco and Nikko, but I LOVE Nikko. I also bought this R/C Ferrari from Radioshack 2 years ago that runs 20mph

You think I wasn't ganna check in!?!?

Nahhh the best joint was the one with the big wheels in the back and small wheels up front and it could NEVER wreck!

It could drive on either side!
 
ive been out the hobby for years now. got a rs4 3 lst2 and a savage in storage. i can hook nters up. there just sitting there.
