just a warning nitroaddict is one of the moderators and he could easily ban you from the site. it seemed like a logical anser to me, or atleast dont drive it when there is a truck coming.

1/10 scale vs 1/1 scale who wins? take it to a vacant lot or even a bike track I think it sucks driving on a street cause all you can do is go back and forth lol.

Nitro Napalm - Insulting me will not garnish a helping hand, I assure you. But - to reitterate; I strongly recommend against running an RC vehicle on a public street. This is the number one way they become pancakes. However, you can program a failsafe to any position, so yes, you could set it to fail to on power throttle, but that would be a very bad thing. Also, once a failsafe reads a good signal again, it will shut off allowing full control over the car again. On a side note, please try not to type in chat speak, as this is a professional question and answer forum, not a chat room.

Streets are ok but my friend has lost control a couple of times because his receiver froze and hes lucky that no cars were coming. I have one suggestion though if you have to run on the street.....block it off with pylons and have friends wave the cars off. Its quite illegal and you can get in a lot of trouble but if you have a big enough crowd of people, I'm shure you could pull it off for a few hours

I don't reccommend the above (for obvious reasons) so I think a freshly paved parking lot will sooth your on-road cravings.

speaking of driving in the street, my brother was telling me that along time ago with his first rc car(a kyosho electric buggy about 8 years ago) he was driving it in the street and a car ran it over, i guess it didnt hurt it at all. i drive all the time in my street because there is hardly ever any traffic and if there is they go about 10mph(its a dead end road). ive came close to loosing my car because of accidentaly spinning into the road(not in front of my house) in front of a car, but luckily i always stop it from going into the road or the people have avoided hitting it. a guy tryed to hit my street car once in the road, he was turning then he saw me and kept going strait and gave his gay slow lime green neon with dual exaust full throttle, but i grabed my car and yelled at the guy. next time i see his car in a parking lot there might be a new scratch in it.

Had something similar happen to me too, instead it was a bright neon ORANGE AND GREEN Honda Civic and the car in question was my Nitro Evader. Car keyed, revenge had.

ok ok im sry nitro addict but im just frustrted - i guess ill be drving the truck MOSTLY on the road and if the failsafe kicks in i'd be PIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDD so all in all im sry dude im so so sry [] lol but to get to the point i might actually just buy a failsafe as i dought that thing what i said is gonna happen....and if it does ill just leap out in front of the car and scream

^^_FaWaZ_^^

LOL thats a good thing to do just leap & scream

MY FIRST RC WAS A MERCEDIS BENZ ELECTRIC (NIKKO) I WAS PLAYING IN THE STREET IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE AND A 89 BLAZER CAME QUICK AND SQUISHED THE DAM THING IT WAS LIKE A SQUISHED SODA CAN I WAS 10 YEARS OLD I WAS SOOOO SAD

Nitroaddict

Nitro Napalm - Be sorry all you want, I'm not upset with you. I do ask though, as I have in my previous post, that you stop using chat speak in the forums. Thank you.

^^_FaWaZ_^^ - This goes for you too. And don't use all CAPS, it is known as yelling, and considered rude. Thanks.

^^_FaWaZ_^^
