I think the high prices the shops are charging to repair broken rigs is more of a stupid/lazy penalty to the customers. Meant to encourage them to improve their driving and learn to work on their own...

I think he's referring to charge ports for brushless models so you don't have to remove the battery. Not a good idea.

The thing today is, less people are using nitro or gas R/C. So its even more niche now, which makes it remain voodoo magic.:lol: Even though more information is out there now than ever. Traxxas and...

That sucks. I hate it, but bussiness is bussiness. And for a bussiness to remain viable and stay open, they have to follow what sales. And racing is not it.

I don't get the people that hate nitro and want it to go away. What's the beef? And what do they gain from it not existing? Less people in the RC hobby??? Don't assume that these people would...

Probably a HPI or Traxxas something at the height of it. OFNA was big then too with their RTR buggys.



It does happen. I never had it with a nitro, but when me and my buddies would arrive to...

I sure hope so. Electric has its advantages and appeals to more people. Cleaner, quieter, and not smelly. The idea of tuning a carb is intimidating to new comers. It all comes down to money and...

If I were you I'd try Bring a Trailer. Marketplace is tempting as well, but then you open the door to dealing with idiots.

I thought the case for Wilksboro were the cars out growing the track, not the attendance. Maybe I'm wrong.

Are you a realtor? Agreed it sucks when another track is lost. I get it, business is...

Good read. Race tracks, fullsized or RC, loosing ground to greedy realtors, developers, HOAs, and NIMBYS? One word, boomers. :lol:

Yep, thats the risk of buying and selling on forums. I hate that, I wish there was something in place similar to ebay that commits the buyer and seller.

Dumb question, but what tires are you running on your setup? I was considering the AKA I beam tires medium/long wear. I might be sacrificing grip but looking for longer tire life.

Pretty much the way our government and polyurinaltips works.

Same in NC. Its stuck at $7.25.



Maybe. But you still can't live on it. :lol: $7.25 is a joke. At 15 an hour you'd do good to just pay rent and bills. Forget about money for RC.

Funnily enough this very thing is being discussed in another thread. I'd say save your money and keep improving with your current kit until it breaks.

Maybe. But I think if the Japanese were still throwing money at it, they would be a little better. There is just no competition(like it used to be) anymore, but if it were, I'd venture to say KTM,...
