why do you say gas powered isnt good for your 1st carummmmm0k 08-09-2007, 06:11 PM ive seen multiple people say dont get gas as your first car but why not. its my first car, and jsut casue i knew nothing about how to fix them i still did, i broke an axle, the sterring, and some other things, but i was able to fix it and it ran =) starting with gas is a learning experience because to learn you have to experience, and if you dont experience then you wont learn naruto 08-09-2007, 07:42 PM probably because they don't want them wasting hundreds of dollars just to crash it into something. I've never driven a proper electric R/C car but nirto can be a hand full a times(for me). Plus maybe the cost of maintenance eg: gaskets, clutches, spur gears, not to mention the cleaning! But then again its a hobby pre98zetec 08-10-2007, 12:36 AM anyone who says nitro is complicated and not for new people are people who can't tune.. I started off with nitro and I;ve been into it for about a year now. Never blown a motor (on purpose) and my motors have 6+ gallons thru them Nitro is easy if you take the TIME to LEARN to tune them. Don't expect it to happen overnight either. xpeed 08-17-2007, 12:27 AM Mostly to save money and time. Gas powered cars are considered to be at skill level 3. Same as nitro cars I think, but I think Nitro cars are faster. Electric is a good way to get the feel of things, then upgrade to the gas. Same as getting a R/C Helicopter. Start with a electric motor and then upgrade to the gas. autotech234 05-01-2009, 09:55 PM I have had many rc cars and crashing is just part of the game. it does not matter if it is nitro or eltri. So I say go with what ever is the coolest and your wife will let you buy. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
