Default RC Funny Cars (1/8) >

Source > http://www.autoblog.com/2012/04/09/t...enjoy-w-video/


" Traxxas is now producing R/C funny cars for straight-line antics. The cars are capable of over 70 miles per hour, come with an adjustable wheelie bar and a TQi 2.4GHz controller with all sorts of fun modes. Launch control, race, burnout and staging modes are all part of the programming. A 1/8th scale Christmas tree is also available.

So far, there are only four funny car models. Buyers may choose between Courtney Force's Ford Mustang, John Force's Castrol GTX Ford Mustang, Mike Neff's Castrol GTX Ford Mustang or Robert Hight's AAA Auto Club Ford Mustang. Scroll down to see a quick video of the cars in action. "

Got the email from Traxxas the other day.
Has renewed my interest in RC again.
Should dig out the old gear again and fire it all up.
