Nitro cars will follow the same trend electric is easier and nitro will be a thing of the past, because of the fact that racers want it easy and not have to work for there fun.

oh well i get what your saying but intill, i see just electric at a 1/8 style outdoor track that i go to at least i dont see nitro going away there is always guys who just dont like electric thats there right .

but yes for me coming from nitro 1/8 omg its much easier with brushless/lipo 1/8 scale even though im still learning how to handle it and drive lol.

but i been focusing on driving more and setups than tuning a nitro engine and no its not being lazy.

who knows what will happen in the future with r/c engines .
