I thought I will share my ride pics on the forum and create a thread for all to share theirs along with some experience.

All of mine are Thunder Tigers. I always wanted HPI and Kyosho kits, but had issue with availability and price. TTs are not as quality built as HPI and others, but have aggressive pricing and spares are cheaper and easily available online from Amain hobbies.

The Thunder Tiger ST-1 RTR is an exception to the quality issue. Its very well built and according to many users and reviewers is "race ready" with a few hops ups. The PRO kit is absolutely fantastic with all carbon stuff. I know many guys on rcuniverse forum racing stock ST-1s. I plan to race the ST-1 once I learn to drive properly. I am just beggining.

I also have the Sparrowhawk electric buggy, which is ok, fast and handles decent, but nothing great to talk about.

So here are my rides:

*Mugen Seiki MBX7 with Novarossi P5 engine*
*Mugen Seiki MBX6T M-Spec with Novarossi P5 engine*
*Mugen MBX6 Eco with Mamba Monster 2200kv*
*HPI Mini Recon with BL system*
*Team Losi 1/24 rally*
*Team Associated RC8 onroad GT Car, Team Orion power system coming soon...
*Hobbyking 1/18 Rally Extreme BL*
*Sanwa MT-4 radio*
Previously owned - Mugen Seiki MBX6 M-Spec, Thunder Tiger MTA4 S50, ST-1, Sparrowhawk XB, HPI BAJA 5Bss, TRAXXAS REVO 3.3

the mini-z is not in the pics, i use it at my work place......rest all are kits or rolling chassis. The mini inferno was an RTR but has most of its parts upgraded. The tamiya TT-01 has all CF and aluminum parts. no stock parts at all. the SCRT-10 has to be fitted with a MMP system which i hav received today. shall fit the system on the weekend.  My next vehicle would be a crawler, @ months time...Axial XR-10...not sure. I am using an ERC 2.4 GHz radio for all cars.

The ST 1 is built like a gun. Throw anything at it and it would "thats it"?

The pro 28 engine is something else, loads of compression and out right acceleration (supplimented by a beautiful drivetrain). Many ppl here are keen on getting the ST1 and at times envy the ST1 for the truggy it is, True Ready to race (not ready to run).

Here's mine. My first RC nitro (will always stay close to me)

And then there is the underbone Tomahawk ST, quite quick for a 0.8 bhp engine.

My ST-1 has been converted to electric. Work is not over. I am attaching some images in the new form and from the old nitro days.

Electric? Anything wrong with the engine? If not, send the engine over(for a price). I have plans of builiding a hot rod dragster.

Absolutely nothing wrong. The engine has been cleaned and rust protection done. Added a new air filter, packed and kept in my workshop. Electrics these days are much faster than nitros and the technology is way advanced, so want to try it.

I can offer the engine for a price. Pls PM me.

Is this same one with Aravind? Those badlands tyres are cool, Want to get them too. Where do you drive the slick tyres?

I have the SS version and havent broke anything on the car except the body. The rims are due for a change though.

Why would anyone like to drive RC cars?
When you fly electric, fly clean, fly quiet, and fly safe!

Divyam

That's a rather unusual question to ask!
Maybe because its the thrill of speed, lack of space to fly, fun involved in trying to manouvre small gaps and jumps and the list goes on and on...
