    I've got 2 both Traxxas Stampede one is a 4wd and the other 2. 3s lipo in the 4x4 which i have pretty beefed up and 2s lipo in the 2, I'm not really interested in nitro. They are just too fickle for me.

    I don't race, just bash and it seems like I spend more time working on it then running it. Price I pay for doing nonsensical stuff like jumping it off overpasses and running full throttle on a local motorcycle track with jumps that just way too big to not go all in. I'm broke down right now and have everything I need to fix it but time.

    Can't wait for the winter...hopefully there will be some snow this year.

    Surely there are other RC'rs here; what do you run?

    I have always wanted to get into RC cars or helis but have never taken the plunge. Post some pictures!

    Pretty fun hobby but like anything else it can get expensive.

    Sorry state of affairs

    When I was a kid I bought a Playtron Viva Arizona nitro powered buggy, but I never put it together. Turns out it became quite the collector's item, so I sold it on Ebay for around $500. That became part of the money I put towards purchasing my Speedy Pro.
