Never ever owned a Nitro car. So I don't even know how to fill'em up or what not, but it seems that these Recat products are affordable for an nitro car as for me and being newbie at them.
So I am looking at an Lightining.
Some my questions are:
How much is Nitro fuel?
How long does it last?
What other stuff do I need to get to make this car operational along w/ nitro fuel?
Also, how fast is this little snot?
Last, how does the 2 speed transmission work? Does it automatically shift to 2nd gear?
nitro fuel is about $25 a gallon and will last you a while, depends on how many times you run the car, etc.
You should get a startrer kit for it, comes with glow ingnitor, wrench, tuning screwdriver, they go for like $20
I never radar'd mine yet but i would say about 45 or so, the 2 speed shifts automatically
here is a video of my lightning:
