Default Large Scale supplier

Hello all,
I am in an area where Nitro is not an option. I am growing tired of changing batteries every 5-10 min's (and buying them at such a high cost). I would like to buy a RC truck that runs on pump gas (even if I need to add 2cycle oil). Where is a good place online to find such a truck and if any of you would recommend a good truck I would be gratefull.
Thank you
Sean

I don't want to be nosy, but in what area would nitro not be an option? Are there just no shops that sell nitro, or do you need to avoid making any loud noise? [sm=confused.gif]

Not for nothin', but these gas trucks are loud, expensive, and you will likely have to order everything over the internet. If nitro is not even an option, they may not be what you really want.

If you still want to check some out, try these:

Also check out http://www.rc-car-online and http://www.krikke.net

As for which truck to get, it depends a lot on what you want of it.

On Road
- Formula 1
- Touring Car
- Truck

Off Road
- Buggy
- Monster Truck
- Rally Car

Do you want to Race, or just Bash.

What kind of budget are you on.
- Smartech Traveller/Carson Attack/Firehammer at aprox US$ 700
- fully tricked out Race Spec car with all Alu and tuned engine (US$ 3000+)
- Fully tricked out + 4WD, maybe 1/4 scale (US$ 4000+ no upper limit)
