1/18 scale sprint car

[sandkil]

Found this little gem online the other day.
Really like the look of it and hoping to place order on one. Just need to get confirmed that they ship to Europe.

Very cool! Following your link

Yip, pretty cool!
And, it's available w/o wing for 20 bucks less. However, w/o Hoosier branded tires apparently.

It's rtr so you get everything -- including a lipo

Obviously left turn only.

I wish they'd post some body-off pics.

I think Nomad should buy one today and give us a full review.

The Midget has been around a while, and they are quite cool. The sprint has some carried over pieces but mostly redesigned. Lots of cool upgrades and options too.

Just got answer from 1rc racing that they do not ship to Sweden or Europe for that matter. Bummer

There are many including myself that are happy to redirect it to you

Ah, there are a lot of differences. For me (a mid-westerner) it would be a no-brainer; I'll take the sprint car.

Been watching some of the youtube videos. Man this thing is neat! NiMh battery, brushless and ESC is fully tuneable and includes Lipo protection
And, it seems to be the perfect scale to run around in the garage. Good winter-time fun.
It would make a great Christmas gift if anyone here is undecided as to what to get me.


Edit: car comes with a NiMh battery not Lipo

I’ve done this for people in the past. Always here if you need it.

Is the sprinter actually a little larger than the midget or does it just appear so due to the added wings and larger tires?

[GoMachV]

My understanding is that it’s larger all around. They are both 1/18 so the midget would be ballpark 3/4 of the size of a sprint
