Anyone into RC cars? Do these look OK?
 
I used to be into electric RC cars (Tamya) as a kid. I had a monster beatle, hornet, porsche 911. I'm looking for something me and my kid can play with outside (April wont let me get a couple of quads, says 10 years old is too young, bull i say but she's the boss).

What do you think of these :

Off road nitro buggy PRO

and

Off road nitro truck (Looks bad as fuck in black)

Reckon i get myself one or just the kid one? 29's not too old for this stuff is it?? Do these specs look ok, or should I look elsewhere, or go for an electric model?

I used to race them. But, I only raced electric cars. They were plenty fast enough...it just sucked that the battery charge lasted 4 mins at most :)

I used to have an electric monster truck and a Nikko Buggy (even have a "drivers license" for that :) ). The sad thing about those electric RC's was that you could play for 15 minutes and had to charge the batteries for 10 hours afterwards.

I would go for that Offroad Nitro Truck, the black one looks bad as fuck indeed :)

Yeah short battery life was always a pain in the ass.

These ones are fuel-driven. Have no idea how fast they go or if they need much maintenance. I'm wondering if I could kane up some of our local ducks :D
