where they send you a Team Lotus R/C car! It's really cool, not some cheap piece of junk.

So, you open the box, and there's the car, the battery, the charger, and THIS!

I actually use to race RC trucks out here. I even used a Losi got tons of flack about not using a Associated RC10 but i didnt care. I really liked the Losi and it helped they had lots of mods out there for them too. Hook me up with a car and stuff !! Man I cant wait until my son gets older and we get to start messing with these and nitro power RC's !!

I've been resisting the urge to get into nitro rc cars. I REALLY don't need another expensive hobby. I know eventually I'm gonna HAVE to do it though.

It just looks like entirely too much fun.

"And what's more, they'll bring your remote control, too..."

Hahahahahaha!!!!

EDIT: On second thought, they don't know the kind of guy they're dealing with... Steam might just see that as a challenge and cobble together his own dang remote out of an old walkie-talkie, paper clips, and electrical tape...

Nitro cars are entirely too much fun and they are very fast. Nice to find a huge parking lot and do some drifting. I have spent way more money racing RC cars than vaping for sure lol.

This is exactly what it was like out here every Firday night. If it rained or weather was bad they had a really nice indoor track as well. Man I miss racing these things.
