RE: stupid monster trucks and nitros
You really need to get a life, if you need to post like that ! I too looked into the 1/6th and buggies...and the guy at the LHS(With many 1/6th & 1/5th kits on the shelf, used cars too !) said don`t do it ..hes a friend ! They break easy and parts are hard&expensive to get. Quote LHS dude : "do you want to jump it ???"
Me : "Well of course , **** yeah !"
Quote LHS dude : "then its not for you !!"
Me : "Well of course , **** yeah !"
Quote LHS dude : "then its not for you !!"
AS far as getting parts for it its not a problem i get my parts within 3 days cause the distributor is just 1 state or province apart from mine.....
Yeah i only drove it once but the freaking tank lasted nearly 50 minutes on one tank......Screw the break in process when you buy a weed wacker do you take the time to break the engine in?LOL
I let it idle for 15 minutes and ran slowly for another 15 then the rest was wot...........and sure rips and sure got my face all full of gravell from nailling the throttle when it was near me...The tires just went and eat into the grass and thru sum **** in my face.....
This is buggy is not a traxcrap buggy like in the videos i seen ona one foot ramp where the guys misses his jump and the front end almost all tear off the buggy...This is the real sh1t....i landed it upside down cartwheeled it you name it....
The only thing that i had to learn about how to jump this buggy is that take the facts that theyare not 4 wheel drive just that will make it a nose heavy buggy on a jump and these buggys are nose heavy on jump that is what I learn....
I am glad i didn't have my body on in the learning process cause it would of got smashed....anyway there will be some videos
and Once you have tasted the best champagne nothing else will do, you will never go back to that nitro rubbish Hic! Hic!

RE: stupid monster trucks and nitros
alright - enough already.
When i first saw this thread start -i was worried it would turn into this. I guess i was right.
Everyone has an opinion. That is all it is - an opinion. There is no need to bash them directly simply because they dont like what you like.
I personally dont like ofna products - but alot of people here do. That is just fine. Are you happy with your Ofna? GREAT! that is all that matters.
If you want to have discussions as to why and why not a particular product is good or poor, that is fine - but if the personal attacks continue - this thread will be locked.

] Personally, I'd like to see some video of this undersized "go cart". If this is the next "coming" in RC, gives us a look and show us what all the hooplah is about. Most people will back their claims with either a picture or a video of what it is that they think is so awe inspiring. If it's that cool, take some pride and show us what ya got! If not, what do you say we drop it and save the space for something meaningful.

RE: stupid monster trucks and nitros
You know.. I dont see why most of you guys bother replying.
Not more than 10% of the participants in this thread have driven a 1/6 scale truck.
Why are we ganging up on him? If you dont like what he has to say.. well The BACK button is for you.
Of course he could word his thoughts in a more POSITIVE MANNER hint hint.
If your talking about something Bigger Faster and Tougher.. (*cough* TA *cough* NOT!) then I'm all for it
If I can use my 1/6 scale to run over my buddy's 1/8 without breaking the bank.. why not!

RE: stupid monster trucks and nitros
Hey Ram,
I'm all for people expressing their opinions and standing behind their particular brand of RC, but if somebody is going to post a thread with a title of "stupid monster trucks and nitros" and then lead off the thread with "I know this is going to start a flame war", then this person has to be ready to defend his words. By posting this thread, Wizen has taken it upon himself to tell 99% of the people who use the car forum that we're a bunch of idiots for spending money on the RC's we drive. This is why everybody seems to be ganging up on him.
I usually take these "my truck is better than your truck" posts with a grain of salt however when somebody basically calls everbody else "stupid", then enough is enough. We all have opinions, however most of us usually take care not to intentionally offend everybody else when we say something. Also, generally speaking most people don't offer up "black eyes" or "lost teeth" because they disagree. At the very least, Wizen deserves to take a few lumps from the members because he acted without regard for the rest of us. Personally, I have nothing against Wizen and have actually found him to be quite amusing at times. This post is not one of those times.

RE: stupid monster trucks and nitros
r/c car guy - its funny, because up until i found this forum, everyone i talked to, or saw hated them, lol.
i have owned one - and know several peeps who also have had them. nothing but problems.
i personally like the GS Storm Pro, the Kyosho Inferno7.5, the TTR EB-4S2, and the HB Lightining pro.
like i said though, this is just a personal choice.

RE: stupid monster trucks and nitros
Yea.. I dont think Wizen meant what he said. I doubt he feels all 1/8 scalers are stupid!!
He was prolly frustrated with his Tmaxx when he wrote this thread..lol
Personally.. I dont say anything about companies because I have only owned 3 cars, HPI RS4 SS, NTC3 (which hasnt seen fuel..yet) and a Mugen 4 Works.
I will say.. I think my Buggy can take more punishment than the average joe Tmaxx. I've done some crazy things and I've yet to break ANYTHING.
