I thought it sounded like a slant 6 and I was right. If you thought that was a fun ride, wait until you drive one with a proper muscle car engine.

[@scaleworksRC]

I lol'd at the Jeep Cherokee noises too. Lovely body on it though.

[@billmadison2032]

My grandpa had a Plymouth Satellite, not a hot rod but the same car basically. I have to go with the Nitro because I'm old and those were the fastest things you can have back in the day, because battery technology sucked back then.

[@beyondRC]

Nitro is great when working. I also prefer nitro but people are all about electric these days for the ease of use :(

[@Boogie_the_cat]

Ease of use, ease of repair \ modification, ease of replacement parts, it's not as simple as "ease of use" There are way more disadvantages whereas the advantages for 'nitro folks' don't really seem like advantages for people who just want to drive: 'sound and smell' I can huff fuel any time I want, but I'd much rather rebuild an electric truck than a nitro truck: cleaner, easier, less parts.... You can enjoy your nostalgia, I'm going to enjoy bashing. If you have the skill and like working on IC engines, that's great. Auto shop isn't a thing anymore in schools and my dad was a drunk, so I don't have those skills. Electric is simpler to work on, end of story for me.

Nitro is fun but a huge maintenance nightmare. I switched to electric 20yrs ago and haven't looked back. Much faster, cleaner, and easier. Electric just work after sitting for 6 months, nitro requires hours of maintenance and fighting with it to get it to start after sitting for months.

[@TheReefa24]

i know exactly what you mean

[@mattinwinkymg]

See i'm not really agreeing with that and its because the power of the electrics cause alot more drivetrain damage, those Kyosho helical cut diffs isn't cheap I've effected a lot more repairs on my brushless toys than my nitro Madforce. Btw I have an Almost vintage Nitro Madforce best basher I own. And some people enjoy the maintenance side of RC

[@CrazyTechLab]

I don't think you're a true RC car enthusiast without trying nitro at least once. I'm totally over it though. It was more competitive in the pre lipo/brushless days. But these days electric is better in practically every way.

[@cliffjones9922]

Whats better? As you say Kev, 'the one that puts the biggest smile on your face!' 😊

[@melmyrtle5765]

The best part about nitro tummy is the actual engine in the tuning required to make it run properly. I always bring more than one if I'm going to run nitro. Just because they can be finicky but they're still nothing that beats it

[@falcondragonslayer]

For me, electric will always be superior. They’re faster, have more power, less moving parts to break, simple to work on, reliable, and (in most instances) cheaper. Nitro would be fun and all that but I’d rather get a car that I can just charge the battery of, plug it in and go play instead of getting one I have to fill with fuel and struggle to get running right, just for it to stall out for no reason.
