I had a Baja there epic until I smashed it in to a goal post :signLOL:
Now have a Losi mini 8ight a lot less hard work with tuning and tweaking all the time it's brushless and rapid for a little rc.

the nitro one has caused me more ball ache in a few days then what building a big turbo gti has in 2 years lol but seems ok at the minute

the baja seems good and just eats through any terrain flicking mud and stones 30foot behind lol

some of the brushless stuff look really fast

Yes nitro is a headache Baja is by far the best fun of them all.
If that hits you or anyone else it will be like being hit by a real car they weigh some. :driver:

I used to have one and it was awesome.

Then I decided to save money buy fixing it myself and basically ruined it  :sad1:

Have thought about getting one again though, either that or an electric drift car.

Here's mine and my lads.  both 1:10 scale with 6.5T brushless motors with some punchy li-po batteries.  Very quick and hardly any maintenance compared with Nitro  :happy2:

Only problem is my boy always kicks my butt at the local track and he's only 10. :sad1:
