Nitro RC Cars & Trucks: Cheap And Discounted

By:

Published: December 4, 2006

Remote Controlled (RC) cars have become household playthings for many a growing boy and girl. They are not only for children, however. Serious hobbyists have made RC cars what they are today from the scaled engines to the astounding realistic bodies of replicas. Without the serious enthusiasts, RC cars would merely be a toy.

When most people think of RC cars, they think of the cheap electric toys that usually cost under $50.

It is true that a great proportion of sales come from the cheaper electric versions made for kids, but that is not what RC cars are all about. Hobbyists who care about RC cars will point to its history as a fun and entertaining way to spend time and even get competitive. From the beginning of RC cars in the 1960's, racing, both on-road and off-road, has become an integral aspect of the hobby.

Nitro RC cars are the big brothers to electric powered RC cars. The nitrogen and methane combination allows Nitro cars to reach speeds that electric cars cannot. With modified two-stroke engines, these cars have been able to go over 75 miles per hour.

Speaking of fast cars, Schumacher racing makes some of the fastest cars on the market. With a four wheel drive system and a 3.5cc engine, the Schumacher Pro Spec is one of the fastest RC cars, with top speeds around 80 mph. HPI racing has a diverse lineup of custom designed trucks, off-road cars, buggies, and monster trucks that all look great and perform even better. Kyosho has a great selection of indoor and outdoor cars and trucks with realistic body designs, most of them replicas of real-life race cars.

These cars come in many different styles and are made for different driving purposes. There are road cars made with emphasis on speed and handling as well as off-road cars and buggies that excel in the dirt or sand. RC trucks are also available and can take on some of the roughest terrains of them all–very impressively at that.

For discounts on RC trucks and cars, shop before the holiday season. Many retail stores (both online and wherever you may shop) usually stock up big time before the holidays. Even some of the most expensive RC cars can be marked off over 50 percent to move them off the shelves. Whether you are looking for an electric or nitrogen powered car, you are a big time hobbyist or just looking to have fun, RC cars are a great way to get outdoors, spend some time with the family or simply indulge in high speeds.
