get psyched over a toy car that can go over 75mph!
Nitro? What's That?
These gas powered RC
cars use a unique type of fuel called 'nitro' which is a
mixture of
- Nitro methane
- Methanol
- Oil
So you can't be putting just regular ol'
gasoline in these special engines. But, not to worry, you can get everything
you need to operate these vehicles by simply getting a
package deal from an online retailer. With a package deal,
you'll get the batteries, battery charger, fuel, cleaner,
a wrench and a fuel bottle to help you apply to fuel
into the engine. Oh, did we mention you also get free
shipping with that deal?
One gallon of fuel equals hours upon hours of run
time. So instead
of electric RC cars that need constant recharging and are generally slower,
these cars allow you to maintain top speeds with minimal time
in the pits after adding the appropriate fuel!

You Can Let 'Em Rip! - On Road Or Off
If you’re dying to get your
RC car out of the ‘burbs and
into some more challenging terrain, Nitro-fuelled RC cars
are also available in a wide variety of trucks and off-road
buggies. With grippy tire treads and wheelie bars,
RC nitro trucks
and buggies offer wide suspensions to allow them higher
ground clearance - perfect for bumpy terrain and rock
crawling! These trucks
also reach top speeds of 65 mph+... just imagine that off a
sweet jump!
Regardless of your experience level, gas powered cars or
trucks are easy and simple to use. Furthermore, many
beginners find that they enjoy the extra power under the
hood that nitro fuel provides.
Everything You Need To Know About Choosing An RC Nitro
Car
Want to know a little secret? The truth is... it's not that difficult to
get into the RC car hobby.
You can get all RC cars and trucks RTR (ready-to-run) - so they're ready
to go straight out of the box! With just a little time out
in the field or on the street, you'll be just as good as
anyone else.
Now, the best way too choose an
nitro car is to determine whether you want to use them for
on-road, or off-road purposes (or both!).
Street cars (also referred to as Sedans), like the
Traxxas Nitro 4-Tec 3.3 are great for first time buyers (75mph). Off-Road nitro
trucks, like the
HPI Savage X, is one of the best trucks for
beginners because you can smash it, bash it, jump it and roll it...
and
it will still keep rippin' across rough and bumpy terrain!
Durability is its middle name.
If you're looking for an RC
car that can go on-road and off-road - then we
recommend the
Traxxas Jato 3.3! The Traxxas Jato is simply the
best all around vehicle, and running at speeds over
65mph, it will definitely impress at the very
sight of it!
Everything You Need To Know About Maintaining Your RC
Nitro Car
Ok, so now you've received your nitro car in the mail -
what now? If you go with a company such as
HPI Racing
or Traxxas, what
you'll get with your nitro car or truck is a DVD and
instruction manual. The manual or DVD will clearly
outline to you how to properly use your nitro car.
It contains information on how to maintain, clean,
tune and upgrade your vehicle.
Just like a regular car, a nitro RC car needs to be
broken in. The instructions will show you how to do
that, and you'll notice after a few runs that your nitro car
will start performing better. The engine needs some heating
up and practice first before you can be functioning at the
vehicles full potential.
The biggest mistake first time users, and even
professionals make, is not reading the instructions. These
aren't the type you can ignore!
After a few uses, make a quick inspection of your vehicle - check
to see if everything is in place. You may need to tighten or
clean your
rc
car components. Read more below for more information,
pictures, reviews and videos of RC nitro cars.
Demand Quality - Choosing The Right Brand
Nitro fuelled models are also offered by all of the major
RC
car brands and providers. As competitive RC racing becomes
more
popular, there is a higher demand for the
fastest RC cars
available. Nitro also leaves more room for
customization, and you'll be able to order more types or
RC car parts
for them as well. To keep up with this demand, all of these
brands offer a wide selection of Nitro-fuelled remote
control cars and trucks…
With these brands you know that you're going to get
nothing but quality, especially since they're used by professionals as
well.
But, with quality also comes look.
What's the point of having an ugly fast car? That's why you
can get nitro cars in different types of models like...
- Dodge Viper
- Mercedes
- Ford GT
- Mini Cooper
- Lamborghini
Driving around a Lamborghini that can go just as fast
as a regular vehicle, with the same look, for the
fraction of the price is sure to keep the kids happy (or
you!).
Safety, Handling and Storage
You also might be thinking to yourself, are these gas
RC
cars safe? Yes, they do go fast, but as with all matters, the
person driving these vehicles has to take a degree of
discretion and responsibility when racing these around in
public places. Any driver under the age of 12 should be
supervised by an adult.
Also, be careful not to run them into any walls,
trees, etc - a nitro car going 50mph+ straight into a tree
is obviously going to take some damage!
When winter comes and you're storing your RC nitro car -
be sure to empty the tank of any fuel - as well as oil, etc.
Store your fuel on top of cardboard and in a cool, dry area
to keep it fresh for longer. Make sure to take out any
batteries, and discharge the batteries for storage. You can
learn more about batteries and how to discharge them at the
RC car batteries page. When racing season comes again,
you'll want to fill your tank with a fresh batch of
fuel.
