Radio controlled cars come in two types of style, either RTR (ready to run) or those that require assembly.
The ready to run cars come built and ready to start driving out of the box, so you don’t need to spend any time assembling anything. There’s no waiting with them. You can of course upgrade the […]
When deciding to buy a radio controlled car, you first need to decide whether you’re going to opt for an electric rc car, powered by a battery, or for a Nitro rc car, powered by fuel. As a rough guide, here are a couple of the pros and cons associated with the two options:
Electric Battery […]
A while ago we wrote about the incredible radio controlled car that allows you drive it and see through the ‘eyes’ of the driver, the VTS Vision racking System camera car. We’ve found some more photos of the kit that comes with it, including the really cool video glasses (which look great by the way) […]
Fourteen year-old Gareth Hunt (not the guy from the coffee ads) is looking forward to winning a big radio controlled car race in a few weeks. Gareth, from The Lane, Sauchen, has been racing radio controlled cars for four years and competes in both indoor and outdoor races.

This is conclusive proof that kids shouldn’t be allowed to invent things, nor indeed should they be allowed in public, or to be around sharp objects. Their stupidity could prove dangerous to themselves, and to others.
Three moronic Americans have somehow managed to get press time for their ‘invention’ of sticking two rolls of bog roll […]
Marty Charron has fulfilled his, and many guys dream by opening his own radio controlled car racetrack. with this new track he’s expecting a lot of interest from locals this Summer, and it’s already proving very popular. The track has been built at Sault Ste, USA, and has been created on a Strawberry Farm at […]
I just saw this and proclaimed it the greatest thing I’d ever seen. I was immediately shot down, but stand by my excited claims. These video glasses, together with a camera mounted on the radio controlled car, allow the driver to see through the car in a first person point of view.
Coupled together with a […]
This video sums up everything I’ve always loved about radio controlled trucks. Cars are fun, they’re fast, they look great… but you just can’t do some of this stuff with them. You need an RC truck to power along the beach, tear up the sand, bound over the hills and do wheelies on both your […]
It seems that more and more across the US in particular, radio controlled car racing is becoming an accepted sport. Texas news network ‘News 8′ recently covered N-Control Raceway’s Off Road race event that took place in Round Rock.
At this specialised off-road track RC enthusiasts race cars that can travel on the faster side of […]
