Right now the people are just driving them in the road or in parking lots in town and getting into trouble doing it.
Well I sure as heck hope there is a high markup on them. DO you know how much a good Nitro truck/buggy/car costs. It's ridiculous. The latest one that I want is 650$. And the fuel is 15-25$ a Gallon PLUS! Every time you break a part, (which happens all the fricken time!) you better expect to shell out 30-50 bucks to get the parts to fix it.


Me and my brother got into a head on collision with our monster trucks @ approximately 55 MPH! I had a HPI savage, and he had a T-maxx. Lets just say it took 200$ to fix my truck and around 100$ for his truck.

Then there is the aftermarket mods! Yes, owning these is like owning your very own camaro. After you see what "stock is like" YOU HAVE TO MOD IT!!!!!!!!!! New motor, exhaust, mufflers, lighter bodies, lighter frames, different tires, new remotes, different car bodies to put on them, and higher octane fuel! Yeah, there is money to be made.

If you do make one your gonna have to give me the hookup on cheap parts...

hmm.... I would like to be able to find someone that would want to go in as a partner or silent partner.lol... It would take some major cash to get something like this going i think but I have the space I just need to inventory. I think I could make a go of it but I dont want to go in debt to try it. If I do eventually get into it I'll hook up all the cool camaro5 people except gtahvit...hes a real well I wont say it but he never responds to my PMs

I would do some research on some of the bigger brands within the racing community.

I'm a big fan of HPI, Maxxis, and Team LOSI. Those are some of the RC trucks/buggies that I own. My Team Losi buggy was clocked at 74MPH on grass...

Awesome! Just don't get into a head on collision with a T-maxx. Believe it or not, you will lose the fight You would think it would be the other way around but it's just not the case. Bent my entire frame. I had pics of it. I don't know where they are.
