The really fast car is something that you can drive and an adrenaline rush. There's nothing exciting about standing there twisting knobs on a controller. The really fast RC car is just a wate of money that goes from 0 to out of sight in 2 seconds. Also nobody ever got laid cause they have a really cool RC car. :-\

Are those made to also be used in go carts and ish like that

Re: VTEC in R/C cars (pics!)
 

That thing probably has more power then a 3cyl geo metro engine. :P

i used to have a rc10gt, i stopped using it cause it would always break. the teeth on the spur gear would always get grided down cause it was plastic.

Re: VTEC in R/C cars (pics!)
 

Most of them use plastic, you probably weren't setting the back lash correctly.

It could have variable port timming, I always thought that would be cool.

Like variable length intake runners, but the runners go to different ports, so the ports can have different timming, and a valve switches between them.

They did they because you didnt set the tension right. Next time, take a piece of paper and stick it in the gears THEN adjust it. I also used to race r/c cars. Both on and offroad gas and electric. Still have my RC10T,T3 and GT, Losi buggy and my Nitro RS4.
