I have gotten pretty heavy into RC cars and trucks over the last few years. New to this site and forums in general.

I like them, but it's easy to go overboard! The local hobby shop closed and auctioned off all the inventory last weekend. We went to the preview and they had a ton of cool stuff, but I decided to stay away from the auction so I wouldn't blow a bunch of money on stuff I don't have time to play with!

Show off Big kid toys? ha ha ha, between my brother and I we had blew small fortune in only 6 months on RC cars and monster trucks we figured it was time to throw in the towel! These are all 1/5 scale Gas RC Cars, both MCD's where all wheel drive, all the motors in all cars and trucks where stroked, performance exhaust and what ever we could do to get them to go faster!

Very cool, the orange Jeep is awsome! Is that gas or nitro fuel?

As far as you Smokin - OMG what in heck did you drive that Baja?? I have never seen so much mud on a RC car before!

Damn those things are cool, how big are those? To be running gas engines, plus they look kind of big?

electric you dont want a gas or nitro rock crawler you get beter throtle control with an electric car plus when you flip it you dont have to wait for it to unflood for a half hour

Yep took it to the park, they played with it for 5 minutes and I chased them around the park with it for the next 15. Who said that RC toys aren't good exercise. :D
