RC Cars

Here are a few of my RC cars. I like indoor carpet racing and I also do some off-road.

 

Nice. I have a few Traxxas models and a DJI drone.

 

Always liked this, but man they can get expensive!

 

Yep it does get expensive

 

Lol...my X-Maxx was $1100 when it first came out.

 

Love a good rc, just can’t afford this hobby yet. I’ll live through y’all!

 

Lol, I hear ya but having a 29 pound truck is a blast.

 

Man that’s a sweet collection. Looking at getting my kids some Traxxas 1/18th scale rc for Christmas. They are 7 & 9. Might be a good excuse to get a Slash 4x4 Ultimate to play around with. I used to have a Rc10T way back in the day. Also a nitro 4x4 Traxxas monster truck a few years ago. That thing was insane!

 

The nice thing about the Slash is the 50% training mode if teaching kids. A great option for kids that age is the ECX line. My son has one that was around $120 and he loves it.

 

I used to have a traxxas E-Maxx. The second gen with the waterproofing. But my ESC stopped working and it sat for years until I sold it.

 

Ahhhhh....that was a little fella lol. I remember when HPI was big.

 

Who remembers these?

 

I had to look up the models for the kids. It is the La Trax Pre Runner and the Teton. I don't know which one they will want yet but I think they liked both of those. They are right at that price point you mentioned.

 

My vintage camero rc is a old TC3 probably 15 years old. I bout a new touring car TC7.1 but have not put it together yet. Racing gets pretty addictive.

 

I got some off roads and a couple drift cars. Also fpv quads. Yeah I have a problem.

 

Here is a video of me driving w my partner.

I used to have a turbo hopper back in the day. I thought that was expensive and then I looked up the cost of these!!!! HOLY SMOKES!!!!


I bet they’re fun as hell though

 

I always thought I'd get some bad ass RC car to tie tennis balls to and attempt to outrun the dog. I know these get expensive and if 1 is good, 4 is better.

 

Oh man, I use to race a few years ago. 1/8 Nitro Buggy and Truggy. Also messed around with the 1/10 scale 2wd short course truck class for fun.

I spent thousands on racing.... I ran Kyosho and OS engines. My 1/8 scale buggy was $2k fully outfitted. Loved it but wish I had all that money back. I still actually have just the 1/8 scale buggy. It is a Kyosho Inferno MP9 TKI3 with an OS Speed Hara Edition engine I still fire up from time to time.

I recently just bought a 1/24 scale ECx Barrage I keep at the office for fun.

Probably ordering the Traxxas TRX-4 K5 Blazer to build and mess around with next week.

 

Ki have also been thinking about getting one of these 1/5 scale monster trucks......

80 pounds! Good grief! That looks like a lot of fun.

 

I have Traxxas Emaxx 4x4 and Traxxas Stampeded 4x4

 

Man that is awesome, when I bought my ECX Barrage a couple weeks ago I went in for the Axial Deadbolt but they were all sold out. I am going to order one online sometime.

I take mine outside and drive it through our landscaping rock at the house. It makes the perfect little crawler track due to its size.

 

Stopped racing a couple of years ago, but still have my Mugen MBX-8 w/electronics, Novarossi motor, and about $1500 in tires. Including almost enough spare parts to build another complete car.

 

My Associated MGT 8.0

 

Boom racing BRX01 with Land Cruiser 70 1/10th scale hard plastic body. Leaf rear, 3 link coil up front.

 

Hendrix Motorsports Formula Toyota FTOY buggy built on a Tamiya bruise frame. RC4WD Toyota axles, and transfer case.

 

That's so nice!

@knoxville36 its a 1/24 scale, perfect for yard work haha! I have a few piles of rock around my yard that are the right size. I plan to pick up the 1/10 Honch at some point, I see somebody here has it.

I also do a little night run once in a while
