used to have a traxxas nitro 4-tec

very very fast, but i didn't ever have time to use it, and it's an expensive toy just to leave laying around doing nothing.

both my nitro cars were impulse buys, would deffo love to have another, but would buy second hand this time.

i think next time i want a monster truck rather than a racing car as i have a big field next to my house.

i've hit the floor on a couple of occasions on a 50cc scooter, 3 times on a kwak er5, once on a ninja 636, and once on an R1.

the R1 hurt the most and i was on crutches for a month and a half. so there ya go, scientific proof that big boys bikes hurt more to crash :)
