Nitro Remote Control Cars

Be a kid again with Remote Control Cars

What was once designed for kids is now the rave for adults as well. There is something about the nitro remote control cars that has every man and some women longing to own one. Thanks to the high demand, more are being produced and offered to people from all around the world to provide hours of enjoyment. You have several choices of models to choose from including, remote cars, buggies, helicopters and more. Each model is designed to have a great style and design to handle the weather and all types of terrain.

The nitro cars are not the ordinary old fashioned style remote control cars. These cars run off of nitro fuel. The nitro allows the cars to go at a fast speed. Once you have added the nitro to your nitro RC you will need to prime the engine with the fuel. You will then need to attach a glow start to the glow plug. If you're RC does not come with a glow start you will need to purchase it separately. Pull the recoil starter using quick pull backs until it starts. Be careful not to over pull the recoil all the way to avoid damaging the spring. The engine should start when done properly. Occasionally you may need to retry it until it takes off. You also may need to adjust the fuel to air mixture once you have it running. You will know by the sound that it makes when it is not running properly.

The nitro remote control cars are more than just your average remote control cars because of the comparison in a real motor and the real motor functions. Because they are different people need to keep in mind that there is maintenance that needs to be performed on the nitro cars regularly. This will only increase your speed and the ability to handle rough terrain.

These cars can reach speeds of more than 70mph. They can climb hills and go through rough terrain while you stand still and watch. If you have never seen one you may want to check out some video online that shows the nitro cars in action. Watching how fast these go before you purchase them is an excellent idea. Pay close attention to the model that is being demonstrated in the video so you will know which ones you need to look for.

You can purchase different bodies for your nitro cars. Your nitro can look like a race car or a monster truck. You can set up obstacles for your nitro to maneuver around. Get friends together and create an obstacle that will challenge all your vehicles.

If you want to purchase the nitro fuel, you can find it in almost all hobby shops around your area. Nitro cannot be delivered to your home so make sure that you can have easy access to it so you can purchase it when needed. If you have a crash you can find replacement parts online where you purchase your remote control cars.
