Nitro or Electric???
I dont know which to get: a nitro or an electric. I know that I want a stadium truck, and its gotta be good. I dont got a local track, so i will mostly just be jumpin and racin with my friends(1 is gettin a rc10t3 and the other has an electic rutler) I dont even have a local hobby shop, and the nearest 1 is like 2 hours away!!! What should i get?? My only concern with a nitro is if somethin goes wrong or i need help, there is nobody around to help. For electric i was concidering the rc10t3 rtr or the duratrax evader rtr. For nitro i was thinkin the rc10gt rtr. What do u think??? any advice would be usefull, cause i am so confused as to which one to get

Gotta love the GT! I have the RC10 GT FT, with a Novarossi engine. Just way too fast - jus the way I like it!
They can also take a beating, and keep on driving.

RE: Nitro or Electric???
brushless electric no question, slightly higher cost of nitro initially, BUT IMO better than nitro. better speeds than nitro and LITTLE TO NO MAINTENENCE. and you have 3 choices to pick from all ST... MY first pick would be the HPI E firestorm flux, fast very durable handles good all metal tranny. second pick would be the LOSI Speed T, fast durable best handling of the bunch, comes with spektrum technology. 3rd would be the rustler VXL, fast toughest of the bunch but does not handle well handles like a tank. all about the same price range around 300 RTR. which is about what the GT cost.
