I was looking around on some other forums reading some kill stories when i come across one that that was written by a camaro owner. All i know about his car is that it was a v6. Anyway he tells everyone that he raced a remote controlled car. He says that he won but just barley and that it was one of the best races he had ever been in. Personally i think that if you would even think of racing a remote controlled car you would have to be pretty stupid but then actually tell other people about it and say that it was one of the best races that you have been in, that is just pathetic.

 

lol, maybe he didn't have any competition since he had a v6.

 

It was probably a joke......

 

Some of the nitro remote controled cars can be faster than most cars 0 to 60.HPI proceed 0 to 60 less than 3 sec.I would say quick for any car remote or not.

 

there was a guy here in Tulsa that had a remote control car racing people. he was actully beating some v8's probably cause they didnt get any traction but still it was pretty fast. me and my bother used to race them and some are pretty quick. and yes the nitro powered ones are a lot faster.

 

A four-wheeler can beat a 5 liter Fox Mustang in the 1/4 mile.

 

My friend has a yamaha banshee and he can beat my other friends GT till his 4-wheeler tops out

 

Power/weight ratios......

 

That is it exactly. My 1/8th scale Nitro buggy weighs like 7 or 8 pounds but puts out almost 2.5 hp. Kinda hard for a streetable car to beat that. My buggy tops out at about 45-50, but that is in the gearing. If I buy the 2 speed trans, forget it. That puppy will hit 90!!!

 

thats pretty fast for a buggy. I know the street ones have no problem hitting those speeds. A street one runs 40-50 mph stock. If you did some mods to it it will run
