@dgriff2255 Because it's electric. It's already established in general that electric RC cars have more bottom end torque. For a nitro powered machine 186lbs for 30' in around 26 seconds is pretty quick.
@timbulb all the electric and lipo and brushless shit i got is not as fun as my savage xl and my savage x.while your waiting for your batteries to charge im still driving. fill up and go. but yes nitro is harder to opperate and maintain. not for rookies.you have your choice i have mine. lets just race and have fun.
Why would you spend so much money into an RC car? im not trying to be a hater its a serious question. Why would you want to over a real car or something?
@MsCrazydriver I guessed you're right. I find that more feasible since the kid in the white shirt is covering his ears. I mean those things are loud. I have 2 nitro RCs by the way, a 1/10 mugen seiki k2x avance, and a 1/8 picco integra. but those are race car. the two have very proportionally wide tires at the rear in comparison to regular RC racing cars.
@MsCrazydriver Sorry about that. But mine are both pre-owned. I spend all my three months of allowance for these. the both cost me roughly almost$ 500. And I'm only 22 and still in college. I couldn't afford to buy a new ones which cost $800 (body only). But I love 1/8 onroad formula GP. 10 years ago, I see people ages 25 and above racing with 1/8s. I was jealous because all I got is $50 electric powered buggy powered by 8 AA batteries. At least I got what I wanted, 10 years later...
@MsCrazydriver One more thing. If you can buy one out of your allowance, fuel can become the largest issue if you don't have a job. I only run mine once every other 2 months. I'm sure you can get your first RC assuming that its better than the ones I have since they are a year 2000 model. Buy 1/8 onroad formula GP, the wheels at the rear are very wide in comparison to the front wheels. They all generally look like a Porsche 917 or a Dauer 962. I'm suggesting a 1/8 Mugen Seiki MRX5. Buy that.
@Destronus thnks but i thing i will see what they have bfor i buy someone i like on/offroad cars like buggy or something and the skull of a dodge challanger or camaro ss or imbreza wrx sti or honda s2000
Cool video, I started with Nitro and still have my Extended Savage SS W/.32 and will NEVER sell it.
But with that said, it never get's used everything else I own now is BL, and once you've had a taste of Higher Top Speeds,More Torque,Longer Run Times,100% Torque @ 1RPM,98% Less Maintenance,Consistent Run's & 80% Less Filthy Gunk and Crap built up on the Vehicle...getting rid of all that for some Nitro's that don't have the same qualities seems stupid IMO...but to each there own I guess.
nitro is the way luke ,use the force.32 you know it to be true my son, I know father. dont be sudused by the dark side luke,,,the nitro is strong in you ,,,,,yes i can smell it father,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Ben remember when i was a nitro jedi,,,I never turned brushless and never will. a little starwars mixed in for shits and giggles ,, Stay nitro guys .
nitro is by far the way 2 go wit rc trucks but in no way was that a full pull, he was going so slow down the tracks the that if it were a real pull the officials would have stopped the run, and he was on concrete, he has 10 times the traction he would have had on dirt!!
Hey guys im looking to buy a new one...I already have a 1/10th buggy with a .16 engine...My choices are either the 1/10th Rally Racing Truck.....OR.....The 1/10th On-Road Racing street car...
summit sucks! I used to drive nothing but electric, than i drove my friends nitro rustler. next day bought a brand new nitro stampede! It kicks electrics butt seven the brushless ones! the problem with electrics is that they need a battery! who wants to charge a battery every 6-10 min any way? get a nitro and grow up! you guys just dont know how to do any work on your cars so u stick to the electrics which are total toys.
How is the Rustler a "toy?" Running on Nitro doesn't make a model any less of a "toy" in that sense, both Nitro and electric hobby class model r/c are not your typical "toys."

im trying to say im 16 and i know how to run nitros but i got a electric rustler im still debation on what i like better but right now i wish i had a e maxx :) i ahte 2wds
NITRO is for people who enjoy having a minature engine to tune and polish
electric is for people who want 'VERY' simple, user friendly, easy peasy plug and play so they dont have to waste their precious time or use their brains AT ALL to make it go.. switch on and go.
GREAT ..
Then they get sick of pausing all the time to charge batteries so they buy a new set for the price of a nitro engine and are happy again until they get bored of hearing nothing over the noise of their mates nitro
@MadOzZy I had a t-maxx first and got tired of cleaning it and buying fuel. The e-maxx is better for me. It has more torque than speed. When the batteries die, you take it in and yer done. No cleaning, no mess. If you like to run all day or compete in races then yea nitro is the way to go.
Haha you are funny with your condescending remarks about electric being for kids because you have a big bad Nitro. Maybe 20 years ago electrics ran for 6-10 minutes. Today you can run them for 15-40 minutes EZ with lipo batteries and brushless motors. Please research before making totally off-base remarks like that. Just makes you look ill-informed to put it nicely. And no, just because we have electrics and don't have to hassle with tuning doesn't mean we don't know how to work on r/c trucks :)
Yes your Nitro Pede beat an electric r/c that probably wasn't even running an equivalent power setup. A PEDE for crying out loud... any half decent brushless will easily beat that.
Also, the Summit does not "suck" like Nitro when it comes to driving on almost any terrain including being completely submerged in water, out of the box! Let's see a box-stock Nitro pull 100 lbs of weight or come out of a deep pond and under it's own power, without overheating or stalling. Puh-leease...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
People who cant work out what high and low speed settings mean yet alone what a carb is ... idle????? DUUuhhhh ????
They choose electric for its simplicity and ease of use. They enjoy watching the batteries charge for hours and hours just to find when they are fully charged its raining outside so cant use the car...
Then when they eventually 'can' get outside and use it they just start to practice drifting and
@MadOzZy :A mid-quality lipo battery with brushless motor can drive my RC trucks for about 30-45 minutes easily and my charger NEVER takes over 1 hour to charge a pack. BTW, almost all new electric trucks by Traxxas are 100% weather proof, and many other brands are going waterproof as well. Your views on electric vehicles stopped being valid in about 1995.
You obviously don't know a thing about electric and go off on OLD news from 15 years ago if you seriously believe anything you wrote..Enjoy tuning your nitro day in and day out and burning your money away. :D
Yeah the summit will pull that across the line all day long. Nitro is for idiots that havnt got the message that electric is better all the way around. Dont worry some day you will wake up and realize.
@1riggs72 and some day you will realize that nitro enthusiasts realized that charging the battery every 5 minutes is a waste of time and no fun.wake up and smell the nitro
@dude211000 : And some day you will realize that modern batteries and motors allow for 30+ minute run times and charging times of less than an hour, with much greater torque than an equivalent nitro. Nitro is great and all, but electric has gotten much better.
@pilotgeek yes but it drains the battery pretty quick if ur pulling 186 pounds. as with the nitro, you could do that over and over until you fry your clutch
@dude211000 With 2 nice batteries and a good charger, I can keep an electric buggy running full power, for longer than your nitro can without an insanely heavy resevoir.
Unplug, plug, good to go, 2 batteries in rotation, can go all day non stop. Lets see a nitro go flat out like that.
@cyberslick18 dude, electric cars are no fun, you dnt need to waste electricitry when you can buy a gallon of nitro fuel and you will be rollin non stop till its gone, i had an electric car when i was a kid
Old comment but your argument is now pretty outdated. You can get 30 mins from a couple of batteries which is better than refilling every 10 mins. Especially batteries from China, those are the best despite what you might think. You can get a couple of 2 or 3s lipos for $30 each and where I live, nitro fuel costs >$30 now. Plus there's the hassles of a nitro and in the end, electric is faster anyway
@dude211000 Not if you get better bateries, they make them to where they can last over an hour, instead of buying 30 dollars a gallon in fuel every week. I have a car to worry about gas.

Let's see a box-stock Nitro pull 100 lbs of weight or come out of a deep pond and under it's own power, without overheating or stalling. Puh-leease...

Lol love the comments XD The fact is: a summit is better! and electric is faster and more powerful.

People who cant work out what high and low speed settings mean yet alone what a carb is ... idle????? DUUuhhhh ????
They choose electric for its simplicity and ease of use. They enjoy watching the batteries charge for hours and hours just to find when they are fully charged its raining outside so cant use the car...
Then when they eventually 'can' get outside and use it they just start to practice drifting and
* POOF *
... 10 minutes of fantastic
electric power is OVER !

@MadOzZy :A mid-quality lipo battery with brushless motor can drive my RC trucks for about 30-45 minutes easily and my charger NEVER takes over 1 hour to charge a pack. BTW, almost all new electric trucks by Traxxas are 100% weather proof, and many other brands are going waterproof as well. Your views on electric vehicles stopped being valid in about 1995.

Most ignorant comment.
*EVER*
You obviously don't know a thing about electric and go off on OLD news from 15 years ago if you seriously believe anything you wrote..Enjoy tuning your nitro day in and day out and burning your money away. :D

Yeah the summit will pull that across the line all day long. Nitro is for idiots that havnt got the message that electric is better all the way around. Dont worry some day you will wake up and realize.

@1riggs72 and some day you will realize that nitro enthusiasts realized that charging the battery every 5 minutes is a waste of time and no fun.wake up and smell the nitro

@dude211000 : And some day you will realize that modern batteries and motors allow for 30+ minute run times and charging times of less than an hour, with much greater torque than an equivalent nitro. Nitro is great and all, but electric has gotten much better.

@pilotgeek yes but it drains the battery pretty quick if ur pulling 186 pounds. as with the nitro, you could do that over and over until you fry your clutch

You don't have any electric vehicles, do you?

@dude211000 With 2 nice batteries and a good charger, I can keep an electric buggy running full power, for longer than your nitro can without an insanely heavy resevoir.
Unplug, plug, good to go, 2 batteries in rotation, can go all day non stop. Lets see a nitro go flat out like that.

@cyberslick18 dude, electric cars are no fun, you dnt need to waste electricitry when you can buy a gallon of nitro fuel and you will be rollin non stop till its gone, i had an electric car when i was a kid

Old comment but your argument is now pretty outdated. You can get 30 mins from a couple of batteries which is better than refilling every 10 mins. Especially batteries from China, those are the best despite what you might think. You can get a couple of 2 or 3s lipos for $30 each and where I live, nitro fuel costs >$30 now. Plus there's the hassles of a nitro and in the end, electric is faster anyway

@dude211000 Not if you get better bateries, they make them to where they can last over an hour, instead of buying 30 dollars a gallon in fuel every week. I have a car to worry about gas.
