At some point in your childhood you will remember your first experience playing with radio control models. If your thinking no I don’t then maybe it’s just me. I certainly remember my first experience it was playing with an old off-road electric remote control (RC) car at my local park. It was so much fun trying to make it go as fast as possible then of course flipping it over and breaking it, but nevertheless a lot of fun! That day sparked my passion for RC cars and I have never looked back since.

For me it has always been about speed! For people who are just starting I would recommend to go electric they have good top speeds and are very easy to maintain. Before jumping into more complex models electric cars provide a good base to get started and build your knowledge to then allow you if you want to move to more complex models.

For outright speed RC nitro cars is the only this to go for! They provide so much more speed than electric cars however there not easy to maintain. Nitro Cars have fully engines similar to your fuel car so parts such as air cleaners, glo-plugs etc are going to need maintaining. They have the benefit (or downfall) of operating a lot more a like a normal fuel car than electric cars do. There engines take time to spool up and the clutch to engage and they sound like normal cars! Nitro cars have the beneft of only taking seconds to refuel and also lasting a long duration than their electric counterparts. I know some people will be put off by the added time you need to put in and if that is you then I would definitely recommend going for an electric RC. Although if you do feel you can put in the time to maintain these cars I dont think you will regret it, the speed and the amount of fun to be had driving them is second to none!
