Nitro Radio Control Cars

At some point in your childhood you will remember your first experience playing with radio control models. If your thinking no I don't then maybe it's just me. I remember going with my dad to the nearby park and driving this old electric remote control car for hours. Driving a little car as fast you can off-road was a lot of fun and trying to push it to its limits, but of course I pushed it far too hard and ended up breaking it! That day sparked my passion for RC cars and I have never looked back since.

Speed for me has always been number 1 on my list! For people wanting to get started straight away and not wanting to have read and learn about how maintain a RC I would recommend going for an electric car. Electric Cars are cheaper and also much easier to maintain and allow you to build your confidence before you tackle trickier models.

For outright speed RC nitro cars is the only this to go for! Nitro radio cars do need more knowledge and maintenance but do go a lot quicker than electric. Nitro Cars have fully engines similar to your fuel car so parts such as air cleaners, glo-plugs etc are going to need maintaining. The parts in a Nitro car operate in a similar way to a fuel car and this does have its benefits. Nitro engines have clutches and do take time to spool up. As a result you also get the benefit of the car actually sounding like a normal car not a toy! They can be driven for longer periods and only take a few seconds to be refuelled. The amount of time and the knowledge needed will scare people however I personally could never go back to electric. Although if you do feel you can put in the time to maintain these cars I don’t think you will regret it, the speed and the amount of fun to be had driving them is second to none!
