I have the traxxis race car with a 06 mustang shell on it. I put an air induction on it and it goes about 95 Mph. I originally purchased it for my son. He crashed it into a curb his first time out and I spent a bit on suspension parts. I decided it was a little to much for him to handle. I take mine out every once in a while just so the engine wont go bad on me. I would like to get a hold of a monster truck with dual wheel turn on it. I have never tried the battery powered ones. I hear they are pretty cool as well but I gotta stick to my nitro powered traxxas for now.

That's awesome!

Like I said...nitros go fast as hell...but electrics are quickly catching up...heck...I think I've heard the speed land record for an R/C was accomplished by an electric...wow.

Yes, you can't beat the sound, smell, the authenticity of nitros...they are awesome.

But you likely spend 75% fixing and maintaing nitro-powered cars and only 25% driving them...and the electric ones are just the opposite, 25% fixing and maintaining and 75% driving them, lol.

Luckily you have a racer and not an off-terrain truck.

You can take the electric Slash into the water...I wouldn't try that with a nitro Slayer.

Do you have any videos of your R/C ride?
