good point -thanks

Since they are advertised as MT --- looks like it fits into the current MT rules.
Is this fair or not?
What do you think?

I don't think this would be an unfair advantage----- do you?
I see the tire/tire size being the biggest limiting factor. But I started this thread to find out info -- just like this. To find out your thoughts on

What's_nitro?
Is your EDF-powered 1/8 on-road car wheel driven?
N
Nope. The fan would do all the work. I figure 13+ pounds of thrust on a car weighing less than 9 pounds would do OK.

EDIT: I see now. They have a "Non-wheel driven" class. Is that divided into fuel types as well? I wouldn't want to show up only to be "smoked" by someone with a mini turbine on their car.

Doesn't bother me either way, Just pointing it out to you.

Whats_Nitro, I have seen some vids of a turbine thrust powered roughly 1/4 scale rc tractor rig, that has potential to get some speed


Work because i gotta, play because i wanna

People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
