    Mini RC cars.

    I've noticed that some guys are into them round these parts. I was wondering if I could get more info on them? What kind of brands do you use? Where do I get e30 bodies? Parts? What can I expect from them? That kinda stuff.

    I like piktars too.

    -Thanks,

    I had the first generation team losi mini-t and it was fun but the differential gears would break within like an hour.

      Damn, nice ones are spendy. I have an "xmods" car. Opinions on those? I like it for the little I use them.

          Hsi is good, do you want nitro or electric. Nitro is fast but alot more work to take car of and gets super fucking dirty fast. I have both electric and nitro, electric is alot more for just fucking around which i like. Just charge battery and play, don't really do much else. Also get a bearing upgrade kit first thing.

              Do you mean for electric cars in general? Or xmods specifically? I'm interested in electrics.

                  Hello tumblr friend.

                  It's not a Mini, but the 1/10 scale Tamiya TT-01 has a beautiful E30 M3 body. Full details at TamiyaUSA.com. Here's a shot of our chassis:

                    I run Team Losi and Team Associated.
                    Both are my favorite RC makers. Look on their sites and see which ones you like. Then buy elsewhere for the best prices. I recommend electric because they're way less temperamental and way less maintenance.

                            My old nitro rs4 belt drive. 2 speed, full carbon graphite, low gears. Shit is a pita to up keep but who cares when I push 75mph on my street. Sometimes race this thing at the local hobby shop on Sundays.
