My hobby

 My hobby is radio controlled cars. But not the normal ones! Mine is a 1/5th scale with a two stroke 23cc engine. It measures 3ft long and 1 1/2ft wide and will do an actual speed of about 70 mph. It's a riot. [img][/img]

I'd love one of those I've a couple of smaller scale trucks and a Tamiya Tiger Tank (a mate has one too and we have battles with a sensor ). I'd love an R/C Pajero which Tamiya used to make, so if anyone sees one let me know Nick |

You can also get the FG marder with the Pajero bodykit.1/6th scale with 23cc two stroke and proper off roading ability.
They are a riot.Flat out about 45 mph actual speed off road and they don't break that often.

Yep they are not cheap.Mine with its current spec which is lots of aluminium upgraded suspension ans front disc brakes would have been about £1500 new.My mate is selling his marder with just standard body and radio gear and road wheels and tyres and some spares for £500 which for what you would get is a good price.That's not a plug or ad by the way just giving an example of price for them but they are worth every penny for their fun value plus with them you can go off roading and not worry if you get stuck or run out of petrol.Both of which would probably happen to me!
