Anybody into R/C cars?

[Avus_325is]

I just picked up a TC-3 from my boss for 100 bucks ready to run with controller. It's got a 1.8 engine, 2 speed, all types of aluminum parts that he swapped in, all under a e46 GTR body. I'll try to get some pics up sometime.

I was just wondering if anybody else is into this stuff. Oh yea, does anyone know where I can pick up an e30 body? I know they were discontinued but I had seen somewhere that they had been rereleased or something.

I play with RC once in a while, I own a Pro 3, and a R40, both HPI. I have no idea where to get an E30 body, i've seen some on ebay, but they cost alot.

I think someone a while back was going to try to copy the old Tamiya E30 M3 body.

I had a FEW when I was younger, but got out of it. I actually remember the DTM M3 coming out, it was a beginner chassis, and not worth it for me. I also had a few boats

YES< the E30 M3 is back! I just ordered one and the whole dam kit! I spent $600!!!

Interesting, the last time I checked evosport's page, those offers were only available for SIG list members, looks like they ditched that requirement.

This means I'm gonna be dropping way too much cash for a toy soon.

That was the GB from the sig, they sold over 100cars! The price were a little nicer to the SIG, I'd say I saved 15-20% for everything.

Those 1/18 e30 M3 replicas are amazing... I was looking at them trying to find some things that would be easy to pick out to know it was a replica, I didnt find much. They do an awesome job.

Well looks like after I buy my 7inch touchscreen LCD for the car I will be buying a nice toy

[E30ownerwithanopinion]

Hey Avus, I got a Nitro TC3 as well that I race on the ROAR Circuit, mainly on tracks in the east/midwest.
Here are some pics:



It has a Banshee O.S. .12 CVR race engine (1.3 HP, 38000 RPM from a Carbon Composite Piston/Sleeve, custom Schnuerle Porting), Ellegi Foam Tires (42/37 shore), close ratio gearing, locked rear diff, one-way front differential, swaybars, and a host of other goodies.

You should really try and race it a few times and see what you think. Racing R/C Cars is really fun, especially on a local level, where the main goal is to have fun, and everyone is very courteous and helpful.

I just bought the E30 M3 from tower hobbies for less than EVOSport is selling them for... I paid 180 for the car, a 2ch radio and an electric engine, plus a 1 year membership to tower hobbies. just got there, mine has already shipped, just 10 hours after my order!
