GET RC10T4RS or RC10GT2RS?
I cant make up my mind. I like the T4RS because it takes easier to maintain. I like the GT2RS because i can just put fuel everytime it runs out of fuel. I could just buy multiple packs of batteries for the T4 but if the run time of one battery pack is too short, then I really dont find that to be worth it. So how long would a 3000Mah run in a stock T4RS(17 turn)?
Thank you all.
Thank you all.

I wont be racing, just for bashing in parking lots or at the beach.

Is it really hard to tune a nitro car? Are there parts that need to be replaced after a certain number of gallons consumed. I'd go GT2RS already if it weren't for these questions..

Please help me out on this, this will be my first REAL RC and I dont want to regret buying the one not suited for me.. Thank you.

with the stock configuration of the vehicles metioned, assuming you use a sport GP3300 pack, you probably can get about 10 minutes of running, maybe more. The thing is that you need to remember is that with the electrics you need to put in about 30 - 40 minutes of charging (depending on amp rate, I do between 5amp and 6amp) . That is the main part that sucks about electric is the charge time it takes. Thats why if I do it again, I am really thinking of just doing lipo and brushless.
Gas can be alittle more challenging, but, in general isn't too bad. If you have a LHS that can help you out it really shouldn't be a problem. Since its a simple 2wd vehicle, shouldn't be too hard to figure out either as there is less moving parts compared to a typical 1/8 scale.

I will say that the GT2 RS is really well-tuned out of the box. We spent a lot of time finding the perfect engine settings so that it will normally fire within the first 5 pulls (after your prime the fuel line) and it runs really well. They even commented on it in RCCA.

You guys would know. I've been out of r/c for a couple years, but right before I got out I built an RC10GT. I loved it, but just kinda lost interest. I'm kinda getting back into it. Does anyone know any manufacturers for getting monster wheels and tires for the RC10GT? I have a few different sets of originals, but it would be cool to be able to go monster every once in a while. As for getting started I would recommend electric.

Thanks man.

I have heard a lot of positive comments about the GT2. You say that it can be annoying and frustrating(gas cars in general). How about the GT2?
