Are Nitro Cars Better than Electric?

Nitro is short for nitro-methane. This mixture of methanol, nitro-methane and lubricants is the fuel and lubricant for “glow-fuel” engines, commonly found in model airplanes, helicopters, boats and more recently, radio control cars. The incredible power, combined with the ear-piercing mini-roar they put out has drawn an ever-increasing crowd to jump into this hobby. A gallon of fuel will make model toys run for hours. This is another reason RC nitro cars are preferred over electric rc cars.

Hobbyists have the choice of building their models or buying them ready to run. Getting a kit and going down on your knees to build your model is usually preferred. When you build a vehicle from a kit, you see every single part, how it’s designed, how it goes together to create the resulting vehicle. You will have a better understanding of how each part works. This makes maintenance easy on your part.
