is this for real!

i have never seen RC Racing before but was just perusing YouTube with my nephew and was astounded when i came across this footage of the RC championships, the battle between the front 2 cars its incredible, especially around 5:20 onwards!

you tube link

the reaction times of these people must be exceptional!





I love Pinto's, even if i did get mine from P&O!

That's incredible - makes you wonder how they know which is their car at times

It seems a bit odd to be transfixed by racing RC's and then fall asleep when the F1 comes on - maybe Bernie the Bolt should watch this video

I used to race


The tech involved in setting up the chassis is where seconds can be gained. Brushless motors and lipo batteries have really moved on and made things very fast, and races can go for longer. Motor speed controllers can be setup to apply the power on a power curve just like a car engine. Tyres and additive combinations can be used just like real cars.
