R/C anyone? This car is sick!
 
:drool: 0-100 under 5 sec, 0-60 under 3 sec. This would be a blast! One of the nicest R/C cars I have seen. 100mph and tunable from the controller by plugging in your iPhone. On an R/C! :driving:

I've been out of R/C's for a while, so excuse me if this doesn't impress you.:icon23:

That's awesome. I have no idea how people drive those, though. I'd need to have a remote video feed and a steering wheel and pedals. :D

Costs more than my first car did :eek:

For the price, I'd rather buy a TV and drive my own car.

I like it!

That's the MSRP. And I don't think it's that bad when you consider all that it comes with. Upgraded radio, 2 lipo batteries, etc. Many people spend way more than that upgrading their revos.

:iagree:High end, quality R/C equipment is NOT cheap. $1100 is not a bad price for what you are getting. Hell, the real turbine engines that go in the high end jet models, like 19' wingspan, cost $2500-$3500 each. And some of those remotes are over $1k.

That's pretty cool :tup:

TreeSemdyZee 12-02-2011 12:42 PM

Crap! I expected it to be gas-powered.
OK. Who's gonna get me this for Christmas? I been real good. :p

Yep I have the r/c bug just as bad as I do with car mods. My r/c rock crawler probably has 800 in it not counting the batteries. My short course truck isn't far behind that either.

Wow!! pretty cool pricey but cool :)

Nice car, but not a fan of electrics. Nitro ftw :tup:

USMCram 12-02-2011 10:10 PM

i <3 Nitro. I'm all about air craft. Have a p-51, and a couple of trainers. With all the crap I have for it? For the 3 planes, I'm looking at at least 4-5 grand total....

And it would end up like this...

I was into R/C helis. Had to stop flying when I got the Z...heli money vs. car paymens and mod money. The helis have been sitting around in the basement for a couple of years now...would love to get back into it (scale-type flying, not 3D).
