hmm i could get this car

-I had 1 of those, Jeff Gordon. I liked how it ran 9.6 & 7.2, it's 1/10th scale & very tough. It has frt. & rear susp., it was pretty quick, (380 mtr.) W/a big open area it was best, anything trips it up, you have to get it back up to speed. Basically it became something that I tore apart, but not in vain, tho, I wish I still had it, & many others from years ago to share w/you guys :)

what is nitro power exactly?
by dragon on 2010-10-02 01:00:12 UTC
Nitro fuel - it's special gas for R/C vehicles - generally used in the "hobby grade" R/C cars like Traxxas T-Maxx and other cars that the pros use. In this case, Hasbro has opted for an upgrade on what would otherwise be considered a toy. I found this little article about it: http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/13/hasbros-nitro-xrc-nitro-rc-for-kids/

they i saw that sky driver, but i'd prefer something fast.
by djdarkforces on 2010-10-03 20:23:25 UTC
pro speed is the fastest but the tirestorm is a mix loads of power and got a nice speed great for cutting grass or find a a nice dusty gritty track and watch it chew it up
