That's some serious air for a small car. I never knew those babys could go that fast. http://showcase.netins.net/web...p.wmv

i have seen advertisements for cars that can go 80mph+they run on some sort of nitro fuel and come modeled after real cars.-is there any computer wizzes out there who can convert that video to a different format so it can be viewed on a mac???

I run 20 or 30% nitromethane fuel in mine. The .15 cc motor turns at 32,000rpm! it really screams!

the tuned pipe on the outside of it gets so hot it's melted the pain on the body before.

That video clip is pretty awesome!! Amazing how the RC car is weighted so well that it lands perfectly.

RC cars are awesome. I used to be an avid builder, with my first kits being a Kyosho Ultima statium truck (later incarnation has not a single stock part on it lol), moving to a Kyosho Triumph (belt drive, babay!), RC10 (original w/ aluminum tub chassis), and finally a Losi DoubleX (i think that was the name). But that was all 8 or so years ago...I've been thinking of getting back into it, but I've got a bigger car to pour money into now

Drunkenvibe, I converted the wmv to an avi file (went to 20megs), then converted it to RM and it looks like it converted pretty well with no dropped frames, but it's a tad over 8megs. If you want me to try e-mailing it to you, I.M. me with your e-mail address.Carl

Note to any Mac users wanting to view this (Drunken, since yours is at work I know this doesn't really apply for you). Microsoft has released WMP 9 for Mac. It works great. This video played just fine.For anyone interested, it's available here. Now back to the topic. Cool video!

I was at a hobby store in Saginaw Mi. yesterday and they had some Nitro RC's starting at $250 - $600. I would like one.....

I've been considering buying another (or repairing mine) but I just haven't done it yet. You can usually find quite a few for sale on eBay too.
