The rest of the car is stock except for the springs.

I never said mine would win in speed, but nitro is so much better. I dont have to wait 15-30 mins for a battery to charge, i turn off the car and put some more fuel and go for another 30 mins

. Nitro>Electric

Thats why you have more than one battery. Nitros cant be run in the cold(or at least a bitch to start), nitros need a rebuild every 2 gallons of gas, nitros have to be tuned for temp. Electric is cheaper with less work.

nitros are fun sometimes, but they are messy and I always have had tuning issues with them. One of these days i'll pick up an 1/8th scale. Did you guys ever race at wood river or at dirtburners?

Never actually been to a track, I am just a backyard speed junkie.
