get off the internet and actually go race........... look at the results from any of the big US races....BL is second fiddle to nitro on 90% of tracks.................. On my track nitro pulls the fastest laps.............. end of story...... theory means jack **** when the real world results don't back it up...........
thats the issue here, all of you are internet cowboys with little real world experience.....
checlk results from nitro challenge, Silverstate, PNB....you will see in every event the fastest laps are by the nitros...and the top pros usually run both nitro and electric classes............
ANd dont start saying these guys have no driving skill or talent...these guys are far beyind what any of you here are..years more experienced with years of track experience....they would literally make you guys looks stupid if you tried to race against them..........
today, right now, 90% of races are dominated by nitro...BL is not tunring faster laps, and BL is having more reliability issues........... yoiu can just check the race results to se this...... you will see less cars finishing the races in BL then you do with nitro.........
SO in the end you BL can suckit, as your internet theory is not adding up to real world track results
Bring your 6S truggy to the track and get owned by a nitro, as thats exactly what is going to happen...the nitro is much lighter and handles much better......
First of all don't forget who you're speaking to. And I don't mean that as a mod. The amount of leeway I've given you over the years, I deserve more respect than that from you.
And before I take it personally that you put words in my mouth, I'm well aware that lap times of nitros are faster. I haven't said anything you've accused me of above.
I've never been saying that electric should displace nitro on a track, I've never said that a 4S electric is in any way faster than a top nitro.
But if you're saying that a 6S brushless car isn't faster than any nitro, PERIOD, then you're in some kind of major denial. Don't tell me on a track, don't tell me under certain circumstances, don't tell me when the moon is green and the water is pink, cos THE REST OF THE TIME, in the REAL WORLD, brushless is a good deal faster than nitro at the top level. There is no argument to this, it's the only fact I've been trying to get across since early on the first page of this unending and soul-destroying topic.
remember dude, you have never in your life seen a nitro that is as fast as the ones I run.... they do not even exist in Greece.........My engines are on a whole different level then what you see at your local track............ I eat the BL setups at my track, always down the straight the nitros take down the BL............ when the BL decided they dont like that and try to gear up to compensate, they end up going thermal..................right now in offroad 1/8 racing BL is second fiddle to nitro ! If you ever travel to North America in any region close to me I will come teach you what nitro is all about....As I promise you its a whole different world then what you see over there in Greece.............
In the end BL Is capabl of going faster in a straight line....but it does not handle better and it definitely is not faster on the track.... BL isn't all that IMHO......And I do get great enjoyment out of gunning down the BL trucks that come to my track to run...the first time they go against one of mine that smug look on their face vanishes to be replaced by the look of disbelief that their prized BL just got owned down the straight by a measly nitro !! thats priceless and exactly what would happen to you as well if you ever came to a track against one of mine.........
