Gas powered Remote Control Trucks
Thinking about getting into the exciting world of RC racing and/off-roading? Well, you've found the right place! Not all RC cars and trucks are like the toys you played with as a kid.

Many RC vehicles are upgradeable, so it might be a good bet to buy a solid base model and add hop ups or performance parts when you get a little more experienced.

Scale refers to the size relationship between the RC vehicle and the actual vehicle is emulates. The bigger they are, the more expensive and impressive they usually are. But don't get overwhelmed. Here are the basic types of RC vehicles you can get:
RC Cars
