So this is the "big" reveal. I got a Schumacher Havoc Stunt Nitro Powered Stunt Truck!!

I just got this in the mail today. Friggin thing is awesome. Box says it will go 50+, but I don't know. I won't really have an area or the means of clocking it to find out. But this thing does rip.

I just got it thru the break-in period (basically 3 tanks of 1/4 throttle), but it was too cold out so I called it quits. Towards the end of the 3rd tank I started laying into it, and DAMN this thing halls ***. I can't wait to really let this thing fly.

And a really cool thing is a friend of mine has like 2 trucks (really why I got this) and he has a huge back yard that we built a track in. I will get pics of that, its really cool.

And I will try to get some videos of this thing tomorrow. Anyways, here are some pictures:















And for scale, this last one, the ruler is 18 inches long.

And if anyone is interested, here is a really good write up with tons of pictures and a video: http://www.rcuniverse.com/magazine/a...article_id=816

 

Nice.......but it's not a

 

haha thats cool Matt.
Have you ever checked out that hobby store on Monroe (behind Sobik' subs)?

 

nice..i got one but it's collecting dust in my garage...i need to play with it again.

 

Mannie, I know, and they don't make Evo bodies for them either. But they do make Suby bodies, bastards.

Dion, I haven't been there, but I think its called Flight Line Hobbies or something. I know where your talking about.

Guy from Texas (Ha), Thanks, and thats kind of how my friend got his. His brother in law traded him his Traxxas T-Max for my friends mini dirt bike. It was just sitting for like 2 years, but it runs like a champ.

And don't worry all, I am going to be taking some videos of these things in action. Mine does dough nuts like nobody's business.

 

The fuel for these things is expensive isnt it?

 

not really...$20 for like 2 gallons i think. not bad..unless you play it all the time then you keep refuelling.

 

Yeah, the fuel I got was $8.99 for 1 quart. So whats that, $36 a gallon, ouch.

 

thats nice but i still want a rc drift car..

 

these are fun as hell. I have a Traxxas t maxx and it ALSO hauls *** even though it does only 35. i think i have beat on it too hard because it doesnt seem to run right anymore. Now its just sitting on my shelf collecting dust

 

haha omg those look sweet, i saw a video of one crushing a ferrari from 0-60, prolly not the same type but i had to laugh when i saw it

 

I agree^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

FOR SALE: I have two nitro powered HPI-RS4 on road cars for sale. Complete running condition with about $200 worth of unopened extra parts. Spare motors, spare tires, etc. Also have a Kyosho Inferno MP-6 off road 1/8th scale buggy with a 1hp motor. PM me if anyone is interested. Will trade for Evo parts!

 

Thats what my friend has, the T-Maxx,he also has the Rustler from Traxxas. The T-Maxx's are nice, 4 wheel drive, and he upgraded to the 3.3 motor.

Sorry, to Dave too, but I think the drift cars are lame. I don't really like drifting the real life sport too much either. Don't get me wrong, it takes talent, but its redundant and boring.

m4tt VIII, there is a video on Google videos or YouTube that shows a RC car going 134 mph on a drag strip. Crazy.

 

I understand think it would be cool to have one just for kicks Any RC that runs on gas is fun to drive. I am unable to see the pics you posted cause of the computers @ work.
