Ok, c'mon guys, you don't know what Xmods are?? They are actually a blast and they are pretty cheap. You can buy them at Radio Shack for $50 and you just need batteries. There is about 8-10 of us that run them like every Friday night or so. We clear out the floor of our showroom and we have a track made of pvc piping that we set up, crank up the music and we run the ---- out of these things. It is the safest form of drinking and driving there is ;) If you want to get heavy into them you can, just like any other rc car, but for about $90 you can have the car, radio, motor upgrades, two sets of rechargable batteries and the charger. I think they are pretty cool and definately something to do when the weather is ishy outside.

Or for $165 you can get a real gas powered R/C car.

Yea yea, I have a 1/10th scale electric stadium truck and and 1/10th scale gas powered RS4 and they are both cool, but you can't do much with them outside and they are too big and fast to run inside, not to mention the smell of burning nitro :P The Xmods are fun to run inside on carpet and ----, especially when you got 5 or 6 cars going one direction on the track and one guy going the other direction, lol.
