DAMN...NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remmber i used to work at car wash, and everytime i would hit the brakes and gas at the same time, so much fun, speacially i knew it was costumers cars
And i always wanted to do that with my RC, and as soon as i get my G260, i will do it and take a video, i will do it till it even melts down the rim loll

I am guessing i have to set up my 3 channel radio, so i hit the switch and it locks the front wheels??? or there is different way of setting it up? Because i want todive around, and whenever i want, i could do burnout, if u know what i mean

wyattroa, You could use the 3rd channel on your radio to do this......but why would you want to waste money on tires?

Dr.ArmoMaxx, 2 things, if you need to power brake a car to get it to burn out.....[&o] also, thats why I dont bring any of my cars to car wash, I dont trust those guys, heck, half of them ride bikes to work. I will stick with having the detailer come to my work wher I dont hand over keys.

See the car i just got is coming with about 30 pairs of tires.. some new, some used once or twice.. i know there is going to be tires in there that are junk and why not just waste them away... and it is fun too. would you know how to set the third channel up by chance?

also it is a nice way to warm the tires up as well before running it. the fg comp i had when those tires were even the slightest bit cold all the car would do is spin even at 1/4 throttle.

I see... you can set the 3rd channel to front brakes and just flip or turn the dial to lock them. But you cant use the front brakes when you drive that way. You can use mixing if your radio allows and just turn up the front to max, but then you need to turn it back to normal when you decide to drive. I personally dont really like running with the front disc brakes since it messes with steering in corners when you need to brake because you forgot to before the turn[:-]
