Nitro conversion, Nitro or electric?
#8
Really there is 2 differnt driving styles needed for racing nitro or electric and each has it's fun points. But with what Thirdgen89GTA said, I can see nitro slowing down, and with the way the econ. is going it might also cause the electric cars to grow (with BL motors and li-po, it really is plug and play now, and the motors and batteries will last a long time). Also the electric cars are faster on the track then the nitro cars. And no Mike you really don't hear the body slap the chassis unless it is a slash, but sometimes when driving you might think your car is off. lol

Of course you will run into the occational haters, but thats to be expected. Most people are pretty cool about it and many are very curious. I'm sure it will grow over the next year or so and be able to split of into its own class.

There is also some tracks that have a electric 8th scale class already, and they get a good sized turn out Big Grin
