Yeah but my nitro doesnt cost a grand ither:bigeyes:
I'm a huge fan of the baja.....but yet I'm not.....I'm stuck in the 1/10tha nd 1/8th nitro section. It's where RC cars are real RC cars to me. The Baja is a close to being a real car, lol.
I like it....but i dont.....Would I buy one if I had the cash to throw around? You bet your ass....I'd beat it like a red headed step child all over some jumps:Banane01:

BB is the way to go! Put a stuffed +2mm stroked crank and it will really scream. Make your you upgrade to a bigger carb and you'll REALLY see a diffrence.
Heres my current goped motor. It rips hard mid rev with a .710 spindle and can easily push me 25mph. I'd love to see it on a Baja
I'm running a W668 carb and it compliments it well

I was gonna go brushless and lipo at one time but theres just no sense. You can buy used setups(brushless RTR) like that cheaper the the cost of a new brushless setup alone. Not counting the lipos and the Rx, and the servo for the new Rx since the stock Mini T servo wont work. Plus it just breaks tons and tons of parts. Not interested. My Raider is enough for my indoor and mild ooutdoor bashing

i mean over all i bet eletric would wipp the hell out of gases but i mean my gas trucks do about 50mph.normal gas trucks go around 30-40mph. my neighbor who used to race has a fully modded electric truck that gets up to 70mph. there things are fun iv been buying parts off ebay everyday to build more trucks to race.its a fun thing to do in the winter when theres noting to work on
electric is where its at for R/C cars, nitro for the big planes. But more specifically, I never was into the regular planes either. I got a trainer, learned how to fly and then built a couple of sport plane from scratch (using coroplast... durable as hell!) one of which is a combat plane (you try and be the last one flying) that is built using a PVC gutterpipe fuse and coroplast feathers and wings that top speeds at about 85 mph.
The 3D which I fly more often goes about 15-20 mph but I usually fly at like 5-10. I liken it couches vs SJ's.
Here's the plane I fly:

Complete brushless setup, LiPo and a $100 TOTAL cost for servos, etc. It has a 2:1 thrust ratio with the prop I use, which means it has UNLIMITED vertical climb.
