Sorry for the crappy ass post im just really tired. I know I screwed all the punctuation and misspellied words that first graders know how to spell. The last paragraph of my topic subtract the quit, and ignore the screw ups and enjoy the topic.

This sport is very competitive in the racing segment and just to brag I kick ass at the local track to all he losers that I smoked hahahahahahahahaha. o.k. good night

No NOS on those cars? They should have something like it on those. I dunno, maybe a 'Power Surge' or something which gives the motor a 'KICK'.

Pssst... most of those cars run on a nitro blend. Trust me, they're already too fast for your reflexes. The race is won with suspension tuning + skillful driving in enable all that power to be put to the ground effectively.

I run (well, used to) electric cars exclusively. The read-to-run ones are:

1. Yokomo MR4TC Pro (4WD electric touring car)
Yokomo graphite front & rear bulkheads
Yokomo rear anti-roll bar
Yokomo Ni-Ti-coated shock shafts
Yokomo hardedned hingepins
Yokomo carbide diff balls
Yokomo Al hubs
Integy Stainless CVDs
Integy Al steering knuckles
Novak XXL (JR FM) receiver
JR Z8450 Digital servo
LRP IPC V7.1 speedo
Trinity D4 Copperhead (12x2) motor
HPI Altezza body (pearl white) currently, w/HPI R34 Skyline GT-R Vspec body sitting around waiting to be painted

2. Yokomo YR-F2 Special (FWD electric touring car)
Yokomo Al hubs
JR R200 receiver
JR Z8450 Digital servo
LRP IPC SR speedo
Matrix TQx-R 7.5Pro (a rpm-tuned version of the Copperhead)
Andy's Accord body (red, to resemble an Accord Type R)

Operated with:
JR XR3 transmitter
Integy Indi 16x2 Pro charger
Trinity Real Time 2 discharge tray
Xipp mod motor lathe
Hudy set-up tool and board
MIP TweakStation
Yokomo setup wheels
Something like 6 race packs + 4 "beater" packs
Something like 10 sets of wheels, mostly belted Pit Shimizus and Yokomos

Come to think of it, that's a decent chunk of change I could have spent on my real car. :o
