i have got a traxxas revo (the 1st gen one) and cant fault it. it is much stronger than some of my friends rc cars, if we crash into each other, theres are most of the time broken, where the revo just needs its shell putting back on right.

hightly recomended

Iv'e always fancied one of these, i need one that can cope with rough ground like a hard core road ( as in lots of stones) and is bullit proof as it wont be in this country so parts will be a problem.. any recomendations??
sorry for the thread hijack

Few years ago I bought a Hyper 7 and specced it up to pro spec (torsen diffs etc..)

IIRC they've been replaced by the Hyper 8, but believe me when I say they're bullet proof, oh and BLOODY fast..

Yeah I have a few RC cars electric and Nitro used to race 1/10 electric a few years ago, all a few years old now but at the time excellent cars, still very capable in the right hands.

HPI RS4 Pro
HPI Rally
And a Serpent Impulse Nitro touring car. Amazing thing two speed gearbox disc brakes very quick

Will sort some photos out

Agreed, his OS front tyre looks illegal to me. If he's not careful he'll get an FPN.

I have an Team Associated RC10GT... haven't used it as much as i'd like though.

Team Associated RC10GT

Has been modified from standard though, various carbon fibre bits and pieces.
