Figured the cars would be cool. Didn't expect the actual racing to be as entertaining as it was. I might be pursuing an deferred childhood interest now lol.
Have to be a decently paid adult to afford these
@@stanmondzelewski9253 yep, it is not cheap
and you must have some free time aswell

Can confirm. Back when I used to race I had a couple grand in an 8ight 2.0. I still have the car, I just don't race anymore. It got too expensive to keep up and I moved on to robot combat.
That being said, if I were to go to a club race at some point, with a bit of practice to knock the rust off I could probably put up a decent performance even with what's at this point a 10-year old car. 1/8th scale nitro buggy is one of the few classes where the optimization was put towards making the cars easier to drive and less punishing of mistakes, rather than optimizing lap times, as consistency is super important in the class. The 8ight 2.0 is actually faster in the hands of a good driver than many of the newer buggies, but it's significantly harder to drive than modern cars.
Again the Iceman comes on top. Ty in my eyes is a better driver great person to talk outside the rc world, God bless you and your family 🤲
The ice man rank goes to Kimi Riakonin
What can I say, a nice and clean run by Ty Tessmann, congratulations!
sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know of a trick to get back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid lost my account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
@Caiden Khari instablaster ;)
@Misael Zahir thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Misael Zahir It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much, you saved my ass!
@Caiden Khari You are welcome xD
Cool footage just got a mp9 buggy spec A
Can we not hear the cars when only staring at the two guys in the studio, please?
Do they ever lose track of their car? Like when they get all cluttered?
Its crazy how fast they fuel the cars
Tessman’s team is insane with their pit stops.
The 2017 race at State line was so much more challenging for these guys! These asphalt off road tracks just seem so not off road!I Seems to me it's called off road for a reason and what happened to roost? Lol
There are other disciplines of off-road RC racing that would suit your style. These cars are designed for maximum speed and the surface is a clay mix to facilitate high speeds.
The day they have fpv on these it would be over with
FPV driving is much harder than the typical “third person” style as you can’t see everything around you. Slower racers can’t see the lead drivers coming up on them which would cause a lot more wrecks.
Great job Ty!
Pretty awesome he thanked Jesus :)
What cars are they using, and what sort of modifications are required to make them perform at this high level?
Tons of driver skill and learning how to set the car up, other than that you can buy the car/engine/ servos/ tires that they use
Is it just me or does one of the commentators sound like ed helms
Daniel Barta what does ed helms sound like?
Cole Ogden Harpersville Al. No relation Rc
Dang 1/8 nitro buggy died out, bummer
Actually, 1/8th scale nitro buggy is one of the few nitro classes that's still around. What happened was that COVID made it hard to hold events.
How much are these fast little toys?
You can get a decent starter kit for $400 or so. Then you have to add batteries, which are going to be at least $50+ each, realistically for a good high discharge 4s battery you are looking at closer to $100 each. Then you will want spare wheels and tires at about $80-$100 per set of four. Spare parts will add up quickly too when you wreck. It isn't expensive as far as hobbies go, but you can spend as little or as much as you want on it.
Cool stuff. Looks really fun.
these are Nitro Buggies (not electric powered). Pro Buggies can cost over $1000
A RTR or ready to run you get a near pro level setup that includes everything to get started. About 500 dollars. A full pro level with upgraded parts can easily surpass 2000 dollars. These upgrades include graphite and aluminum materials in place of plastic ets. Even at my local country track guys run 800 dollar engines that he been professionally modified. Awesome hobby or go pro!
In addition to what everyone else has said, these things aren't small either. My 8ight 2.0 wouldn't fit in a carryon bag (not that the FAA would let it fly anyway since it's got an IC engine in it)
Where is this race at ??
lake city Florida, 49:30.
It's also in the description
Its obviously in Antarctica
According to my calculations
What cars do they run, or what brand is the best to race with?
The best car to race with is a mater of opinion but I like the losi 8ight x but they usually race x-ray, team associated, kyosho, losi, and of I'm not mistaken durango
I think the Tekno race cars are very reliable.
Mugen seiki is the best brand hands down
@@camdenrock5777 Kyosho is King
@@camdenrock5777
Mugen seiki's a solid brand but they're definitely _not_ an innovator. They've continued to stick with wide-chassis designs when everyone else has been moving more towards narrow chassis designs. They can still compete but they're starting to fall behind.
TLR, Associated, XRAY and Kyosho have been the main dominant manufacturers in this class in recent years, with solid performances from JQ and Agama as well.
What a flat and manicured track!

Sorry people spent all this money on these cara but my Traxxas Rustler is just was fast and so much cheaper and could easily beat these Nitro cars
take your rustler to any track that would allow it to run and race a simple club race. id be willing to wager you wouldn't even make the A Main. its not just about pure speed on these tracks brother. its the way they handle, fly, land and corner. every little think about race grade chassis are tuneable, right down to the length of your ball studs for adjusting roll center. traxxas bashing is fun, but no comparison to any brand race chassis =}
@@leleannameade4921 ruclips.net/video/pNInhEqHjW0/видео.html. Seems to work pretty well if u ask me
@@leleannameade4921 again seems to do just fine. ruclips.net/video/S0oZ925hB3w/видео.html
@@pluggedev8464 🤦🏻♂️😂🤣
do you actually race? Rustler is a good starter car for bashing, trying to turn it into a competitive ST in the era of carpet tracks and laydown and center mounted trans, it is a waste of time. The 1/8 scale wheelers are on a different level. My mod motored Awesomatix can outrun any of them on the appropriate track but people run nitro 1/8 scale because it simply is more fun and involving. Anyone that has raced lots of different types and classes would probably agree. My last RC racing was all on road touring car but racing 1/8 scale nitro was FAR more fun--but too much work, time and mess for me.
Again, Rustler is good at what it was designed for (it was designed in like 92-93!!! ) starting people off in the hobby and bashing in parking lots and dirt fields. If you actually want to RACE and not be a back marker in the way--You can get a B6.3 for like $350. Rustler is really a terrible race truck.
@@pluggedev8464
No, _you_ are what's doing just fine. You're an amazing driver but you're holding yourself back by continuing to run an entry-level car. You're definitely ready to step up to one of the high-end racing kits.
And no, you're nowhere near as fast as these guys - not because of your driving skill, but because your car tops out at around 25-30 MPH, whereas these buggies can hit up to 50 and maintain that speed a lot better.
