Costs to drive a nitro car or truck
Depends on how many times you run it.
Engines, glow plugs, P/S replacements, Actual cost of trucks. If you race it is more. Membership fees, entrance fees extra tires and wheels, bump starters. Racers typically spend $800+
I just got a T-maxx and dropped a Sirio. So far I'm into $500 and had run the truck maybe 10 tanks, so the more you use it the less it gets, but for me it averages $10-15 everytime I bash and $15-$25 each time I race. Serious racers $30+ a day
Guys on e-bay plunk $500, lose interest, resell at $300 and used the car/truck for 5 tanks.
