That's awesome .

Am quite tempted to get into the nitro stuff myself. I think it's amazing how tunable they are! Can even buy tuned exhausts for them .

guys, there might be some nitro cars for sale here soon, watch this space!!!


In fact, this will be up for sale in the next month, as i dont use it!!!



Its a Smartec Traveller and is 99% the same as an FG Marder.
In fact reports show it is actually better built, but all FG spares are the same.

Its has the most expensive upgrades on it known in the RC world, including
23-29cc conversion, Chokeless Race carb, FG Race Diff, Samba Race tuned exhaust system, off road and on road wheel sets, (runs on 2 stroke, so no messsing about with nitrofuel, just pull the starter and run it all day, like a chainsaw engine.
just need a charger for the onboard receiver and batteries for the handset and away you go £420.00 no offers

The Diff, and exhaust alone cost over £200 !!!
Its had about 6 hours constant use and thats about it
