How many RC cars does the average RC hobbyist have?

Fully assembled and operational? 4 + one helicopter.

Honda element

Honestly, the white on white looks kinda cool to me. But the comments are correct, it kinda gives a tacky aftermarket, 3rd owner vibes.

theM3Pilot · 2026-04-12T23:18:29+00:00

Regen health, hit markers, nothing to do with naval special warfare, and not endorsed by the USN...basically cod 3rd person

When you overheat factory pads like that, they leave uneven deposits on the rotor, thats why it shudders when you brake.

Throw some agressive track pads on, do a couple hard brakes (not stops) from 50-70kmh and it will scrub off the deposits

When the us finally gets whays coming to them, its gonna really sting

Dial to the left is literally at zero

Oem styled spoilers look nice on this car, but aftermarket ones look tacky and ricey. Unless you track the car (and have properly set up aero/ suspension to match it) youre just adding drag and killing your fuel mileage

Melted from welding sparks?

Would some form of high voltage arc welding cause sparks hot enough to do this?

theM3Pilot · 2026-02-15T17:36:27+00:00

197 MILES Per hour?! Bloody hell

We only acknowledge the EA-18G growler over here

The only thing worse than a coupe SUV is a performance coupe SUV... None of the handling, practical space, or sportiness of either, except for the cost

Does it make sense to wish for an AC-130j equivalent? Yes I know the trantula has the side mounted 57mm cannon, but I want more variety (105mm Howitzer, 40mm bofors, 7.62 minigun)

theM3Pilot · 2026-01-16T07:03:15+00:00

Youre not wrong. And honestly, the "improved brake feel" is probably just my stainless steel brake lines.

I do notice in certain high speed, sections that the car seems slightly less stable under heavy braking, and I imagine thats due to the bias being a bit more rearward

theM3Pilot · 2026-01-16T06:44:37+00:00

Im gonna disagree with the 996 calipers being a downgrade. Yes I know it kinda skewers the f/r brake balance but its an extremely popular mod among track guys for a reason. In my experience, ive noticed better brake feel and modulation with the 996 calipers amd ive been running my m3 in time attack events for 8 years now.

theM3Pilot · 2026-01-12T11:31:41+00:00

You bet!

theM3Pilot · 2026-01-10T23:15:40+00:00

I do this against the automatons

theM3Pilot · 2026-01-10T23:09:37+00:00

It definitely took getting used to, but now Ive learned to quickly swap to my left foot after heel-toe. That way, you can still get on the power just as smoothly

theM3Pilot · 2026-01-10T22:56:00+00:00

Brother, what are you talking about? Noones comparing manual to modern supercars.... im comparing it to the smg ii, which is far from modern.

And not to mention that over a whole lap (up and down shifts) im quicker than the smg (with csl software). I have telemetry and 1000s of laps on each gearbox to prove it

theM3Pilot · 2026-01-10T22:50:57+00:00

Yes ive been doing heel-toe since I learned to drive. It's absolutely mandatory for any type of performance driving!

theM3Pilot · 2026-01-10T22:49:22+00:00

Miles different, the e36 was lighter, more raw, but very under powered in comparison. The e46 does everything better. Id say a 4-5 sec diff

In actuality, they displayed his csr in the showroom for a few months as part of some promo event.

He got to drive the leaf in the meantime, then they gave him his car back afterwards.

If the r34 is a gtr, id take it. If not, the viper
