  • Poplaong vs ‪@KevinTalbotTV‬ again but this time ​‪@kevintalbotrc‬ has a secret weapon... an absolute legend of Nitro RC. Mr KYOSHO. Mike Cradock is a legend of the nitro game check out his credentials:
    uk.kyoshoeurop...
    We head down to Herts Nitro for our first ever Nitro outing and it is going to be a steep learning curve for us.... www.hnmc.co.uk/
    We would not hve been able to do it with out the help of our very own Pit boss Dave.
    He let us run his never before run Team Associated RC8... What an amazing car for our first try at nitro racing.

    Good stuff! You've hit the nail on the head there, referring to the notion of racing, with the smells and sounds of Nitro, along with 1/5 Petrol I find that experience hard to beat with other types of RC, I've not done 1/8 Rallycross for around 30years when I used to thrash a Kyosho Inferno, loved every minute of it. And it was good to see Herts RC Club track, I plan to be there this coming season (when work allows) and participate in some of the BRCA rounds (electric Truggy if they run the class). Thanks for the vid upload!

    I know brushless rc cars are really better performance-wise but nitro/gas powered rc cars will always have a soft fuzzy spot in my heart. My first hobby spec rc car was a nitro, OFNA ravager. 1/8 4WD buggy and I went on to race it at the local track and man the memories that were made with that car. Was a great time, so much so I bought another one off eBay to fix up and get it out and bash around
