Nitro Rc car or Gas powered Rc car is a radio controlled model car that runs on a special fuel -- a mix of oil, nitro-methane and methyl alcohol.
The Esp of a Nitro Remote operate car is that it is far more mighty and runs longer compared to electric Rc cars. They are a little more costly than their electric counterparts - both to own and maintain. While electric Rc cars are ideal for beginners, Nitro Rc cars are ideal for serious hobbyists and racers.
Basically, a Nitro Rc car has an internal combustion machine of 2-stroke or 4-stroke type. Fuel is supplied from a little tank that contains its special fuel. Normal gasoline will not work in these engines. It starts whether with pull start cord or starter box.

They also have the universal subsystems like, electronic radio control, servo speed control, transmission / gear system, drive train, differentials, steering system, shock absorbers, and batteries for head lights.
Ok, then what makes an Rc car so special and expensive? First, the complicated internal combustion machine and its subsystems are costly, compared to the uncomplicated motor in the electric Rc car. In addition, the battery is a uncomplicated one time speculation compared to recurring fuel cost of Nitro Rcs.
Also, Nitro Rc cars derive more dirt and grease. More the running components in any principles mean there will be more wear and tear. Both these add to the maintenance cost.
But for the sheer power and racing range, the Nitro Rc cars are the leaders in Rc toys. For your choice, they are ready in 1/8, 1/10, 1/12, 1/20 scales as well as mini nitro Rc cars. The 1/8 and 1/10 scale Nitro Nitro Remote operate cars are favorite with racers and serious hobbyists. One can buy them in any hobby stores or in internet business sites for in the middle of 0 to 0.
