ONCE YOU GO NITRO YOU NEVER GO BACK....LOL

Well I just bought an 1/8th scale, so we'll see. It will be cold out this winter.


I like them both. Yet in my opinion gas racing is more of a group effort.
It joins people closer do to the fact of tuning pitting and you can see guys doubling up on cars just to get them fueled and out faster.

Electric is more of a cut throat race. Each man for himself. You dont need a second man to run your kit. In the pits we all hang out, but in a 5 minute race you wont see many guys run around to get you back out like 1 hour main of gas racing.
Maybe in the future with lipos we will see more electric racing with pit stops.
10 minute runs and do a battery swap. Like an endurance race.

I'm still electric at heart. Its easier. And I'm lazy. Just had to get some nito going again after 5 years. So you guys will probably be seeing me post a rash of 1/8th scale Q's.
Later.
