Stew Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I have a Traxxas Nitro 4Tec and it's a beast of a thing HOWEVER I find it difficult to use it properly due to space limitations - it's a 65mph racer. This one but a few years older http://www.traxxas.com/products/nitro/n ... 4tec33.htm The best thing I did was buy a Traxxas Revo as it'll go anywhere and goes about 50mph. It goes off ramps, attracts attention at the skate park (back flips impress the skater dudes) and just rips up the place. http://www.traxxas.com/products/nitro/r ... vo5308.htm I'd get something thats offroad whether a buggy or a truck as you'll get more use out of it!

Number86 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I think that's nifty, it's does indeed make you quite sad, but that doesn't matter. Everyone's a sad geek about something. Cars, computers, blow up dolls. Whatever. Embrace it! As long as you're not socially crippled it's fine IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
