I used to have a Team Associated RC10GT when I was younger and I loved it when it worked...which was about 1% of the time. I had the shell professionally painted and it looked awesome, but it was just such a PITA for breaking.

Janesy B · 13 Jan 2010 at 19:49

Still broken, two shattered diffs and a snapped drive belt. Meh.

I got really excited and thought you had the new mugan CTR ... grrrr

Sone · 13 Jan 2010 at 19:51

Firestar_3x · 13 Jan 2010 at 20:00

Meh, its too small, i've got:

Team Associated TC3 - with lots of alloy bits
Hpi Savage x 4.6 (Started life as a Savage 25)

Too small?

Sir, it is a 1/8th Scale, with a .21 Racing engine!

He's posted a pic of a radio controlled car?

Yes. A piece of precision, high end enthusiast kit. It is not a Toy.

Quite.

The MBX-5T Pro Spec kit is around £400 alone, with a £150 engine, £40 pipe, £100 of servos. This is no cheap toy as you say.

Oh come off it, its a remote controlled toy car. A more expensive one than your average argos sourced one yes, but its the same thing in principle.

Yeah just like a Kia Picanto is the same in principle as a Formula One car.
