i live outside of houston texas. does anyone know of a place to get nitro powered rc cars?


There’s an RC toy shop at the front of my neighborhood – not sure if they have what you’re looking for, but they would probably know where to send you.

They’re right next to Gerland’s and they’re always racing cars in the parking lot.

    towerhobbies.com has a lot of great stuff at decent prices, and the shipping isn’t too bad either. They have electric, nitro, and even gasoline powered RC cars and trucks. Here’s an example:
    Best Deal #14! Buy a Traxxas Revo 3.3 Nitro (.20 motor) 4WD RTR and get a $20.00 Gift Certificate! which has these specs: Length: 20.650 in (525mm)
    Width: 16.125 in (414mm)
    Height: 10.375 in (264mm) overall
    Weight: 9.4lbs (4264g) no fuel Wheelbase: 13.7 in (348mm)
    Ground Clearance: 4 in (101mm)
    Requires: Traxxas 10%-20% Top Fuel, 8 “AA” batteries, 7.2V battery for EZ-Start

    (notice does not have pull start, as it has EZ-start)

    With a fuel bottle, gallon of 10% traxxas top fuel, and Hobbico Batt/Chgr Combo w/7.2V Batt (2)

    Everything comes to you at a cost of $785.96 (note: this is a fictitious order with extremes for display, and not a typical order for most R/C car buffs, also, fuel ships with an additional $20 hazmat charge)

    Now then, for shipping, subtotal is $785.96, hazmat shipping surcharge is $20, that’s $805.96, after shipping, your total comes to: a whopping $2000, no not really, the total is only $814.95, that’s just $8.99 for shipping, ON ANYTHING. Parts Express items for just $3 or 4. Buy their membership and save on shipping (parts express items are free shipping). Plus there are LOADS of hop-ups featured all over the site. Depending on what you are running.

    Hope this helps
