Stadium Truck
Electric
Associated T3

Why: I love off road cuz of the randomness of it. I love seeing a car get 6' of air, land, and keep going. Why electric? Cuz I like to plug n play.

Nitro Stadium Truck
RC10GT w/ OFNA Force .12

Why: I love offroad cuz the vehiculars are so tough. You cant ram a sedan goin 50 through a plywood barrier and have the car live to tell about it. Also i lovve the speed and realism of nitro.

Touring
Stock
Tamiya TA-04S

Why: Racing the E-maxx is fun, but its stress fun, this and that to go wrong. My good ole' TA-04 never lets me down, and it does what its told to do all day long. Stock is fun for me, because I beleive it is more driver. The Track I race at (speedline) is very fun too.

NTC3

Why i drive a touring car is because its fast, realistic, and a masterpiece. I drive nitro because its fast, loud and smells. I am a nitro fan!

Touring
Stock
HPI Pro 2

Realistic looking vehicles, instant throttle response, clean enough to chase your cat/kid inside; quiet enough to drive it at 3am without annoying your neighbors.

Touring
Nitro
RS4 3 Type SS

Why? Since I cant afford an e46 m3 yet, seeing the body fly down my street on the RS4 3 is good enough for now. Also I like setting up the car to my likings as you would with a real race car.

Stadium Truck
Nitro
HPI Nitro MT

Why? Has a lot of aftermarket support, very durable, fast (especially with a Hyper 8 Port in it) and I like jumping even tho I havent done it in a while, I will get back to jumping soon. Also I love the 4wd because of the grip and accleration. Also the nitro and the noise so you do wake up your neighbors at 3 A.M. :p

Sry I had to put both I use them both about equally, not one more than the other.

Nitro Stadium Truck
FT RC10GT

Why: I like offroad racing, jumps are more interesting than driving on the flat :cool:, and of course its just fun to play in the dirt. I like the 2wd stadium trucks, because they take more skill to drive than the 4wd buggies. Thats just my opinion, but at least at my track it seems like with 4wd, you just point and throttle. With 2wd you actually have to drive. Don't get me wrong, buggies are sweet, and they do lay down faster lap times than the trucks. My next project is a Hyper 7 PCR pro. That way I can race in two different offroad classes :D

NTC3
Touring

Why? Its such a blast watching how perfect this car is on the track, but what I really enjoy is the wrenching and tuning in the pits that makes it fun.

Electric
Tamiya TXT-1

Why: It can go just about anywhere. Huge torque, lot's of possibilities.

Me:
Buggy
Electric
Losi XX-CR

Why: It's been sitting in a duffel bag for over a year. Not worth it to take it out to sell. Nothing wrong with it.

Why: nothing like flying through the air and dodging ruts a loomy clay track, plus has a lot more things to tune and setup than electric trucks

Onroad

It depends on my mood....

I love the way my 5th scale squeals going around turns and will leave stretches...

I don't race, but I drive:
Offroad ST
Electric
T3 w/novak SS (for now...at least till CC comes out with their stuff:D)

Why?: There's plenty of places like construction sites around here to run the ST with awesome performance (and rooster tails!!!). Plus if i wanna go onroad...just switch the wheels and tires for some sticky treads, and lower it and BAM! Onroadable too. :D

Associated (2) 10L4 19T ARCOR & Modified
Associated TC3 Team Stock, 19turn
Associated RC10B4 Team Stock

Owned many types and brands of rc cars over the years, due to the changes in type of racing done from offroad, 1/12th onroad, 1/8 gas, dirt oval, carpet oval, to tc with the popularity of oval tracks still being big.

Me:
duratrax MAx ST
hopped up 1/10th, 2wd, Nitro ST

why, its strong, cheap to run, powerfull, driveable, and not to Emo [like the t-max] - and i love that smell of nitro

And:
(old) Shumacher Cougar 2 [pre club10 cougar]
Electric 24turn, 10th 2wd, buggy

why: a quite break from the finnikyness of nitros in a mood, used to race it at the club untill it was superseeded by the later buggys, and my younger brother drives it while i drive the maxST

- and i'd like a NTC3 (or even a TC3 would be good)

me,
offroad
xxxnt w/ cx12
why? its so much fun to finesse a stadium truck around an offroad track w/ too much power :D
i also really like racing my savage w/ stock s25 because its a lot of fun to pitch it in the corners and watch it fly off the jumps. :cool: i cant tell u wich is my favorite, cuz i dont have one :p

1/8 Buggies
XTM X-terminator "PRO"

Why: first of all, it's my only car!!!! I love buggies and offroad because they are so fricken strong!!!! You can jump so high (over a house) (have you seen that one!?!?!? haha. anyway :D ) and still drive away!!! its CRAZY!! sorry.. and racing is soo intense. they control incredibly in the air, and while driving. I havent broken a part yet, and i bought it in July!
