i dont waste my money on overpriced $100 lipos it makes no sense there all made in the same factory. I have yet to blow a bearing on my 1/8 rc8te truggy at all or any diffs.

Nobody is lazy because they do not want to mess with nitro not everyone is good at tuning engines . im glad i did the 1/8 e i can relex more and focus on my driving

i like the smell of nitro just dont like the extra matence and tuning involved thats all.

extra maintenance ? please tell me where nitro has extra maintenance then a electric. I just bought a brand new 8E and drove it last weekend, i still had to tear it down completely and clean all the suspension parts just like my nitro so everything is in tip top shape. O wait, im sorry i forgot you think maintenance is just blowing the car off till the next time you race.
