"I don't think electric 1/8th scale racing will ever take off; it is the dumbest thing I've seen. Electric is in the past, nitro is the future. They may be quicker but they don't have any noise or smell."


so he already admits to them being quicker, in racing quicker is what rules the track, and what rules the track people will race. being the dumbest thing hes seen? more power, longer runs, cleaner, quieter, more consistant yeah thats ALL BAD! i know of a track locally where he races sometimes i would love to check out some 6s power. ive only met one person who did not like my car while at the track racing,a nitro guy. after he saw me run my buggy he didnt have much to say. nitro guys like it cause its nitro, so you MUST screw with your car ALL the time to keep it running. loud, dirty, messy, inconsistant all the things electric brushless is not. i love mantaining my brushless 1/8 scale, service plan is as follows 99% of the time: remove charge and replace 6s lipo.
so let all the nitro guys have their "fun" they are only nitro guys untill they drive a neu on 6s lol!
