Just came across this vid, and after watching it and seeing the price on the link, I placed my order! They have a US store, and it's $50.80 to my door.
I love classic bugs and really looking forward to it!

Pretty cool.

I wonder if they are the same as the 1:1, once you hit 50, and floor it, it just gets louder, :hehe:

I was going to see if the r/c nitro version has more hp than 1:1!

It would be cool if the car's exhaust sounded like the 1:1! 😎

I'm still planning to hold out for the 6s version of this though! The one that will tear a hole in space/time. 🤣

I still have this bad boy, brand new in box, in the basement for nearly 15 years! One day, I will break it out and bring it to life.

@Greywolf74 has been trying to get me to sell this to him since he first found out. But, I'm a greedy, little toy hoarder, so it's not going to happen!

Greywho?
so listen... I'm gonna shoot you my address and... 🤣🤣🤣

Thats a great little chunk of R/C tastiness! Yeah, I can see why you'd hang on to that!

Probably doesn't even work... makes you wonder though.

Even if that were the case, I can't imagine it's anything that couldn't be repaired/replaced.
I just happened to have bought it towards the end of my nitro phase.

We had a VW Bus in the mid 70's and they float real well. 🤣

Yeah they do... Until they break down. Then you just push 'em. My Dad remembers having to push his VW vans multiple times growing up.

Bro, I would so get one... If it wasn't a WPL. I had a C24-1 and it was a piece of crap. Gave it to my little brother. Please let us know what you think of it when it gets there.

Maybe we should take it out of the box... just to "test" it. 🤣

I'm, literally, just getting interests back to rc again, right now. And the interests is in the form of little 1/28 garage floor racers. It'll probably be awhile before I get so back into rc that I dive back into 1/8 nitro 😄

Just in case, better send it to me and I'll take care of it for you... long term. 😉
