Sjdickso Nice I bet they do get through tyres. https://z22se.co.uk/threads/bought-a-new-car-its-jap.19098/ Since then got a few batteries and bought some drift bits for it but yet to fit them, let my little lad loose with them a while ago causing havoc in a park lol.

PowR_Remap Sjdickso said: Can you get RC bits cheap then? yes and no, I could with Ansmann but they have since shutdown their rc division. I'm also going to call it a day with the business as I cannot compete against companies like modelsport & rc geeks. Need to sell what I have first though :-)
h4rri Have a Savage 25, Kyoshi Scoobie nitro & an electric buggy 🙂 Don't use the intros at all these days, it's all bout the ease of the little battery beast 🙂

But I just love the sound of the whine of the nitro's and the tyre smoke!
Sjdickso My word!!! That's fast. Shame you are selling, up if get any budget plug in chargers or batteries send us a PM.

Paul_Wheeler I used to have a Schumacher nitro fusion with the Suzuki escudo pikes peak shell. It had a 3 speed gear box & used to do 98 mph! Made a right mess when you used to hit something flat out!!! Brings back the memories!
