Someone will say disdainfully “ah, radio-controlled cars …”, but right up to the moment when he sees these cars and those who drive them in action. The video we invite you to watch is about 12 years old and since then this sport has gone even further – at least in the United States, where the video was shot.
Both organizationally and technically these are really big competitions – both then and even more so now. Before us is a cross on all-wheel drive electric models, but the same races are held on cars with internal combustion engines. And besides that there are circuit races, drifting, trial… Yes, we are still talking about radio controlled cars!
In cross-country, the team is divided into two people – on the second level of a special platform there is a pilot who drives the model, and on the first level – a mechanic who maintains the car and releases it on the track. Check out the awesome ride of Felix Lowe, pilot of the HobbyCrap team, with a model called JConcepts. At first Tim Potter tries to force a fight on him, and it even comes to contact, but Lowe is unstoppable…
