here's my HPI Nitro rush EVO I just picked up. Probably spent way too much, considering I could have bought a nice RC10GT or Losi truck for the same amount..... But I didn't want to have the same truck that everyone else has at the track.

Just finished breaking in the engine today, thursday is the next nitro day at the local track.

I used to own an RC 10 but When I went to gas power I bought 2 traxxas T-maxx's and then I aquired another . Very cool hobby . I also have a nitro boat that hasnt seen water yet . But it will this weekend . Ace .

I still have my R/C truck, it's a Fatuba, I think that's how you spell it. I got it for christmas like 10 years ago or somewhere around there.

Yeah, I'm into it and it is addictive. Currently I have a Traxxas Stampede and a Duratrax Street Force GP. I used to have a Tower Hobbies ST-15, Duratrax Max ST truck and the BX buggy, but sold them all to buy parts for my 110 project. I was planning on racing a Team Losi XXX-NT Drake edition this year at my local track but decided to spend the money on the building of my race quad and 250r. I'm thinking about getting the new HPI Nitro MT2 truck this summer for the days when there's "nothing to do". Oh yeah, almost forgot about the airplane. It's a Thunder Tiger MKII .42 Trainer. Only flown twice, I don't have enough time for this thing...hasn't been started in over a year!!

im into it a bit, used to be alot more,i've had alot of nitros, HPI nitro mt, HPI super nitro rs4, bunch of electrics and a few others.. but lately all i like to do is work on them/fix them, there a bit too simple for me to like, so i moved to r/c airplanes, got done building the main structures to my piper cub j-3 a couple weeks ago, but i still gotta cover it, wheels, controls, all that stuff, also gonna get a O.S. surpass 4 stroke engine for it.., heres a pic of what it is so far, im ordering some stuff for it right now as i type... (the third pic is next to a 1/10 scale electric r/c car so you can see the size comparison, the cub has 6 foot wing span..)

I had electric and a gas powered car in the past.

I just flew my brand new, first ever r/c electric plane today. prolly lasted about 30 seconds before i nosed it and lost the prop. pretty good for a first flight ever I guess.

I am trying to get into flying. I bought a cheap plane off ebay at the begining of the summer and have been learning on that. Soon I figure I will look for a better plane. Anyone have a sugestion for a good trainer/easy flyer?

yeah well people mess with things. Cajun hang on to that RC10 and that Monster Beatle in good shape those are some real money bringers. i should talk my friend out of his RC10 with a dirt track/street conversion on it.

But i had to give it up for now have sold everything.

Guys, guys, guys. You can have your big motors and 4x4's. I've got an RC ATC250R! It's in my avitar but I'll be happy to get more pics if you want them.

By the way I was kidding around with you guys, I think you all have some nice toys.
