R/C Vehicles

As an owner of an r/c high endurance racing car I would like to share with you the thrill and joy of owning a few of this insane mini cars. These r/c cars are powered by small engines that run on gas, travelling up to speeds of 150km/h, now thats extreme. To drive you are equipped with a wireless remote control that has a throttle and braking leaver and a steering device, it also has a data screen that shows you how your car is doing. R/C cars are a great hobby and with this hobby comes great perchs. You are informed of tournaments where all sorts of people bring their r/c cars together and race for prizes which consist of money and sponsors. With a sponsor you get all sorts of freebies to tune up your car to extreme levels. This includes decals, suspension, engine, etc. upgrades. These r/c cars are not only competetive but fun as well.

There many types of r/c's such as:

R/C Aircrafts
R/C Helicopters
R/C Cars & Trucks
R/C Boats
Specialty R/C Vehicles

When purchasing an r/c car you should look for a beginner vehicle. The price will range from $300-$2000. If your a more hands on type of guy, you should look into a package that you build the car yourself. Beginner cars will not cost as much but the car is very low-end. As your expertise in r/c cars grows you can purchase a car that is more high-end and includes top speed performance, high quality body graphics, good tires, and a good remote controll. The r/c car I own now is about $1300 and is top notch. I raced my car a couple of times, I had a blast racing but the competition was way over my level. These guys and girls I raced knew what they were doing, they were able to take a turn at full speed while I had to slow right down. This is where a sponsor comes into place. These guys had sponsors so if they had to crash to win, they would do it because their sponsor would pay to fix it. Meanehile I tryed to take it easy because if I crashed my Dad would have a fit. I did alright when I raced, even though I wasn't the greatest I managed to finish 4th place, 5th place out of ten guys. That was my first race as I practiced and got better, I won my first race, to win I had to knock another guy out of the race, but a win is win. I enjoyed racing and going to the store to buy a r/c cars. Hobby Hobby is well known r/c vehicle provider, this store is where I purchased my first r/c car and I also continued to go to the store for replacement parts and just to check out what's new. If your into having an adrenaline rush r/c cars are for you.

This is a video of me driving my r/c car.
