I used to do off-road desert racing in sportsman truck class and have done such races as the Baja 1000 & San Felipe 250, etc. I don't know if rc can really be put in the same category. I used to hit the gym and did lots of cardio so that my body could take the punishment and so that mentally I wouldn't wear down as fast...in fact, I was in the driver seat for 10 hours during my last race. My guess is that doing any type of cardio vs. eating cheeseburgers everyday would not impact my ability (or lack of) on the drivers stand while I pilot my buggy on the track.
RC sure is fun, a lot less time consuming and lot easier on the wallet though!
