Radio controlled cars
 

Who's got one?

Yep

HPI Vorza with a monster motor and a few other overkill mods lol

Hot Bodies VE8 which i'm just doing some secret mods to :)

A few but the fave ones got sold 1/5 scales :(

Thinking about getting a off road one. Wondered if there were any clubs around Eastbourne. Not sure electric or nitro

I've had both and would never go back to nitro as its just a pita imho

Electric has instant power & torque and faster :), yes it costs a bit more in the beginning but once you have the battery's & charger there's no more to get

Granby what have you got?

:wink:

Here's my little beast

That hot bodies VE8 looks the biz.

It's a good buggy, don't think they make it anymore though

I have a small collection :oO ;)

Many years ago I had a Tamiya Hornet. Ahhh, memories!

Used to race battery touring cars and indoor 1/12 mardave v12's,

Olly has one of these.
When we got it home I was really impressed with it's speed and shock setup, especially as it only cost £69.99 :

The only downside it that it has too much torque for the plastic drive shafts and CV knuckles. So an upgrade to anodised ally is probably a must.
It's likely to be more robust if you don't go full forward throttle then full rear throttle, as this twists the shafts after a while.

Where did you use to race si?

Haywards Heath and Bognor,.

Ok cool, We raced at tolworth years ago.

My bro had a 1/5 scale at one stage, was mental. Think it had a Zenoah 26cc petrol engine
