nitro don't need as much fussing, not as much breaks, and is easier

oh ive had nitros in the past, in fact i was a nitro fanboy when nitro was fast. But tuning, and the mess, and the cost of fuel, glow plugs and all that stuff is the reason i got out of it. Trust me, i could tune an engine with the best of them, but why should i when i can just plug a battery in and go? And go faster and harder than i ever could with a nitro truck. To me the fun part is haulling ass and working less, and not fiddling with a tiny screwdriver tuning an engine. To some people fiddling with a little engine is their hobby and thats fine. Its just different strokes for different folks.

The Savage Flux is a beast and a great basher hence the popularity.

I ran nitro in the past and will never go back, but thats just me.

yea I feel ya.
I'm currently way under employed, and barely skating by at times.
Most jobs I apply for either I'm told I'm over qualified, or under qualified.
If I was making what I should be I'd have way more than I got and not be dealing with buying heavily used, and abused RC's

yeah, I already did 2.5 years at Wal-Mart and I'd rather beg on the street then work for them. Actually, I couldn't anyway, I signed a non return agreement that they wouldn't hire me back because I told two of my main managers at the time to go fark themselves and walked outa the store

don't bother applying in Illinois we can't even employ what we have here. Hell hear on the news 90% of one chicago suburb is unemployed a while back. And all our new governor did was raise taxes for businesses... yea get more jobs here by increasing what they pay smart move. While our last one is on trial for attempting to sell an elected seat. Seriously we don't need entertainment here we just have to turn on the local political commentary to get some damn good laughs

Saw this posted somewhere else but it applies
