No its electric. I started with a battery one becuase I know NOTHING about engines and my friend Liam got an electric one. So I know he can help me with any problems I have. I wouldnt mind having a gas one if I can totally get the hang of this one!

Thats nice. My son has little RC cars that we play with. He's been wanting a big truck like that though. How much did you pay for that?

it was a little expensive. I think I paid like $225 for the truck, 3 battery packs and a battery charger. They do have cheaper ones though. You can check out www.TowerHobby.com or I can get you a link to a site that sells 'bootleg' ones that are almost the same quality etc. My friend sent it to me, but I dont have it here at work.

I used to have an R/C truck for a while. I was all bout upgrading the motor and all that shit, but I can't for the life of me remember what I did with it. I probably gave it to one of my friends or he stole it or something. Theyre lots of fun though.

The site says your truck can go 26mph.... is that SCALE mph or ACTUAL mph?

like.... 1/10th scale model 26mhp scaled would = 2.6 actual mph

or is it full out real 26mph...

???

I've known several people throughout the years who've had the fuel powered trucks. I don't remeber what they actually used for fuel, it wasn't straight gas though. Those things would fucking haul ass.
