I bought a new toy.

No it was not expensive, almost same price as one 15" Pirelli Pzero gravel tyre. since I have enough tyres already, i justified the purchase.

You got a nitro-powered RC car? I swear, Moose. You have all the cool toys.

Personally, I'm interested in the new monster from HPI.

It may not be as fast, but 1/5th scale powered by a 2-stroke... Castor Oil, anyone? (I know how much you love that stuff.)

You need this one Moose. Since you aren't going to finish your Evo, it makes perfect sense.

Brian's wife bought an Audi RS4 Nitro car and had it painted to match the hill climb car and gave it to him for Christmas last year. It was pretty cool.

I always have wanted one, but never have the extra money. It's kind of like shifter karts. Though with the kart I know how quickly I'd get arrested as I know I'd go drive it through downtown. Or get killed.

That's the same one Steve Bis has! We took it out to some dirt light rail parking lot a while back though and broke the suspension and he's never fixed it. It's a blast to play with and hauls ass!

Everyone I know with nitro rc cars is always breaking them or they are broke.

I have four RC cars. None are nitro. None have run in the last six years. I just can't bear to part with them, though, for some odd reason. Sad to think I have close to $2000 worth of RC stuff in my garage that's, today, worth less than $100. sad smiley
