Thought I'd share this here. These things are such a treat to drive that I ended up buying all 4 to complete the set

it's actually not as bad as you would think! I can get at least 5 packs out of a set of tires. Rotating them helps a lot and honestly I think the surface is so smooth and dusty compared to a road that it helps a ton with the life of the tires. At least thats what I have convinced myself of.Curious what those tires looked like after that run
And how much are the tires?it's actually not as bad as you would think! I can get at least 5 packs out of a set of tires.

A pair of tires is about 65$ so 130$ for 4.And how much are the tires?
haha I've never in my life thought about running rc's in that way. I just know these big things provide such a rush and excitement that I can't get enough. I think it also helps that I have like 4 big on road rigs that all have the same tires so each set feels like they last even longer as I'm not always driving the same rig.So even at 10 packs, that's roughly $13/run. Holy cow!
Isn't that still cheaper than a pack of smokes, though?So even at 10 packs, that's roughly $13/run. Holy cow!
Got me thinking 13$ for a day of fun is kind of cheap tbh.Isn't that still cheaper than a pack of smokes, though?
No. My cigars are less than $2/pack, and a pack lasts me 2 daysIsn't that still cheaper than a pack of smokes, though?
But that's $13 for maybe 10 minutes of funGot me thinking 13$ for a day of fun is kind of cheap tbh.
to be fair, I think I get at least 20-30 minutes of driving time depending on how I'm driving. I've actually never had the car die on me from empty lipos. I'm always ready to go before that happens. Funny enough, I do pretty good with infaction/felony tires too. I know some people literally only get 1 or 2 packs out of a set of those tires and mine last way longer than that.No. My cigars are less than $2/pack, and a pack lasts me 2 days

Not knocking it. I'd love to have one myself. But I couldn't afford to drive it. Same reason I can't afford to buy a Felony or Infraction. Tires are just so ridiculoudly priced for RC's.
I'm not a smoker, so just going by cigarette signs at gas stations.No. My cigars are less than $2/pack, and a pack lasts me 2 days
TRUTH!I'm not a smoker, so just going by cigarette signs at gas stations.
Both combined are a hella a lot cheaper than when I go to the gun range!
My friend is still a diehard Marlboro smoker. At $9.50/pack and a pack a day... holy cow.I'm not a smoker, so just going by cigarette signs at gas stations.

Yep. I shot three in three different classes Saturday, and it cost me about $100 with entry fees for 120 targets, plus sighters. And that's for .22lr.I'm not a smoker, so just going by cigarette signs at gas stations.
