RE: Traxxas RTR 1/8 NRHA Funny Car Race Replica
Most of the excitement of a real funny car is the sound and burn outs. Too bad this isn't nitro. I had an Associated nitro monster truck w/reverse.
It was so fun to do burn outs then reverse back to the line and burn out again. It would be cool to install a drag chute. Oh well, I'll stick to pro4 SC |

ORIGINAL: FNG RIDER Most of the excitement of a real funny car is the sound and burn outs. Too bad this isn't nitro. a 2wd electric funny car. i can see it now, it gets bought cause it looks cool. gets used once or twice, the user gets bored as hell cause it only go in a straight line. parks it and never uses it again. stupid |
RE: Traxxas RTR 1/8 NRHA Funny Car Race Replica
Looks interesting, I wonder what the price range is? Looks like you have to buy the timing thing separate so I'm thinking the whole package might be a bit pricey.

RE: Traxxas RTR 1/8 NRHA Funny Car Race Replica
kind of a pointless and mostly useless but ok.
i call shenanigans on the add though, i don't think the real RC car is pictured. i think they used the real car and photoshopped a radio behind it. very missleading |

RE: Traxxas RTR 1/8 NRHA Funny Car Race Replica
Here in the states the quickest is 121 mph done last year at rockingham.. And by the way for people who think this is boring trying to get a car to stay straight at these speeds is not as easy as you think Come and visit the web site International Model Drag Racing Association you,ll see what we run and and all about the national events we hold across the staes

RE: Traxxas RTR 1/8 NRHA Funny Car Race Replica
traxxas claims everything they make can do 70mph you just need batteries and gearing, not everycar can handle that speed. My rustler claimed 70mph i set it up to do 70 but no not even close, down hill with a tail wind maybe it would hit 70

ORIGINAL: silvermansteve quickest in australia? do they actually get quicker than that? is that yours? But 1.178 is fast.... his reaction time was 0.465 so if he got a perfect reaction time that would be 0.713!!! Top speed of 176.6km/h 109.7mph Traxxas still has a long way to go...... hey have u guys noticed what ever traxxas sponsor a short time after they start making a r/c version...

RE: Traxxas RTR 1/8 NRHA Funny Car Race Replica
While we bash Traxxas about...well...everything, they have done a lot of good bringing things out first, and maybe an affordable RC drag car is what the hobby world needs next. There are many people out there who would love to get into RC dragsters, but there is just not enough out there ATM to justify it. Maybe this would help give the drag racing world a little push and open it up in more areas. You never know!

RE: Traxxas RTR 1/8 NRHA Funny Car Race Replica
If you want to check out some rc drag sites that sell cars go to dragrace concepts, rc car kings, grand motorsports and team walbern those are the most popular that sell high end drag cars. they have all classes from pro stocks up to top fuel cars and all the parts and we all know we will need those parts....

RE: Traxxas RTR 1/8 NRHA Funny Car Race Replica
Looks like the esc is only rated to 3s?
so going faster than the claimed speeds may not be much more without a motor and esc swap... [:-] |
RE: Traxxas RTR 1/8 NRHA Funny Car Race Replica
For 500 i can put together a T/F railthat will run 1.5s @ at least 85 mphconsistently in 132 ft
