ah thats what I thought, thats scale speed though lol, actual is about 18kmph, still pretty nippy though.
Unfortunately it's a front wheel drive which I didn't know at the time of purchase :( For some reason it also pulls to the left, can't keep it straight for more than 10 metres.

I originally got this one.... http://www.thesourcecc.com/estore/Product.aspx?language=en-CA&catalog=Online&category=RCCars&product=6018464

Which was easier to control, not as nice looking but more power since less spin cos of rear wheel drive, I know that sounds back to front but with RC cars rear wheel has more traction due to acceleration downforce. But an hour of play and the reverse gear bunrt out for some reason and they didn't have any more in stock.

I'm figuring on getting a fleet of them over time :01: they all work on 27mhz so theoretically I could drive them all at once :D

Lets just say it's frustrating.

Ahh ok, lol...in the first link says "177kmph (110mph)" and in the 2nd says "16kmph (10mph)". I think the 2nd is a more correct way of puting things.

I really would like to have a rc car but with a petrol engine :w00t:
I saw one once and it was phenomenal :) , rwd, lot's of power slides...:cool:
it looked like this one: http://img473.imageshack.us/my.php?image=7yu5.jpg

Yeah like I said, it's about 18kmph, I spoke to the Source a little while ago and they are gonna swap it back to the Toyota on friday due to the fact this Nissan pulls badly to the left.

If you want a REALLY cool RC http://www.trendtimes.com/rc-wall-climber.html :D

That would be so much fun when drunk :lol:

Top gear had a go at this with Scalextric (http://www.slotforum.com/forums/index.php?autocom=custom&page=SpdRec).

Fastest scale speed was 697 mph so you've got a way to go.

I think in this case, you need to be hot.
