i just recently bought the nitro rs4 rtr 3... cause i always wanted it.... and its cool and all... you can build it up like a real car... but a lot of money... different body and stuff.... its one of those things.. " I think" you have to go through..... and just get it out of your system.... cause you can take other peoples word for it... and they'll be saying yeah its really not worth it cost too much money... maintanence.. its a bitch.. and stuff like that... and you'll stop thinking about buying the thing... and you'lll always have that thing in your mind.. like i wonder how that rc car is.... so you'll keep on wondering.. so you should just buy one.... and just get it out of your system... i mean right now... i play with it time to time.... on the street.. and stuff.... if you're asking me.. if it was worth buying? i think it was not worth spedning like 370.. for it.... cause that's how much it costed me... but do i regret it? nah.... i don't regret it.... cause i've always wanted one.. for like the past 5 years... and just finally got it out of my system.....

sadly, i was into this r/c stuff too, for like a few months only though. but, i went through different types of cars. first it started with that little Bit_Charg , then the MicroRS4, TC3, and then the Tamiya TRF414M2. the tamiya i used to compete with. but anyway, i usualy ran an 11Turn Motor, and those go plenty fast and fine for competition. but i put in a 7Turn motor one time, and that little thing went like 40-50 mph. lol. ah...i'm so glad i'm out of that little hobby. haha. costs WAY too much money. rather spend all that $ on my car or clothes.
