Well, for pretty much the same price of a good RC Car Sim you can get the Team Losi Mini T. I test drove one at the LHS and I'm picking one up this week. I recommend the real thing before a simulator.

Thanks for the reply, teamsquirreltail, but I do plan on getting the real thing soon. I just thouht it would be nice to run a sim on the days I was unable to run the real thing. [8D]

Well, with the Mini T, you will be able to run everyday! I take it you haven't seen it? It is small enough to fit in your hands, and can run just about anywhere. Check out www.teamlosi.com for pics, specs, and videos!

Thanks rcmtdriver2000. That's what I am looking for. I see on Tower Hobbies the RealRece runs from the game port. Do you know if this simulator come with USB?

Why can you not run you car when it rains?

If I waited till the rain stopped, I would never get to run my RC. Just put your radio in a platic bag, poke a whole for the antenna to stick out, and do what you can for you electronics.
