bravo 35 Report post Posted January 25, 2005 Used to have an e36-shelled petrol which I clocked at 63km/h at an RC event - kicked ass - go the av-gas! It was almost too fast as you needed a really big carpark - it doesn't take long to get to the other end at 50+km/h and then you only have four tiny wheels contacting the road for braking. You can buy cars that can do 100km/h but that is just ridiculous. Also, had an electric mini cooper that was super quick, and short chassis, so mean on the turns (Bought it as front wheel drive, and modded it so it could be frnt, rear or four wheel - rear was the most fun - donuts in a mini -yeaa! And a rwd off-road buggy. Sold them all. now have a half-fucxed 4wd off-road buggy - it really sux, and a petrol boat of my brothers which is really mine coz its at my place and he never comes around to use it. goes about 20 knots (but only on calm days - will flip on even the smallest ripple on a lake at anything over about 12knts) But for those of you who go boating - you will know that's fkn fast for a model boat. My mate has several planes, but I have never really liked planes - choppers are so cool, but ithe carbon rotors can set you back 500 or more, so don't crash them. At least planes and boats are mostly fiberglass and wood. Don't use any of these at all anymore - grown out of it I guess. I might have a mid-20's revival in a year or so, but for now I spend all my time and money playing with my real car and my dads real boat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

m325i 709 Report post Posted January 27, 2005 Busted: got any pics of your real car? Yeah im gonna have to get mine out. Electric tho. RC Cars are a 5 minute wonder for me though. They always break too, or something not right. Copter would be bad, esp with a cam attached!! Or if you could strap fireworks to it and blow it up hahaha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
