Tires for your 1/16th scale ZD Racing RC trucks and buggies

Well This post was inspired by a person who asked me a question on ebay about whether I had any tires for the 1/16 RC cars for sale . Since I have put all of mine to use I decided to pass on some places to get tires cuz well im a nice guy and I'm going to pass this on to you as well .

So now I have gotten the race bug

Well now I'm on the lookout for a chassis that I can race with at a local track and to be honest I'm not to picky well wait I am picky right now since I really don't have the money to buy a new RC I'm watching ebay for something that should be competitive and frankly is a great deal for what I'm getting .

 Right now what I'm looking out for are cars that fit in these classes 2wd SCT Mod, 4wd SCT Mod ,2wd mod buggy,4wd mod buggy, Stock Slash,1/8 E-Buggy .Now I know the odds of finding  a competitive 4wd buggy that suits my needs in my price range is pretty low and I know a 1/8 e-buggy is rather unlikely to sell in my price range as well  unless it needs a good chunk of work .That pretty much leaves 2wd sct,4wd sct, and 2wd buggies , After looking on ebay a lot I have decided the odds of me finding a buggy I like for cheap is pretty unlikely as most have been raced and probably are going to need everything rebuilt and that wouldn't be very cost effective but there still is a chance . After all this typing that leaves 2wd and 4wd short course trucks and here is why . They are bought by more people as a first rc at this time than any other car on this list I have to choose from and that does two thing it means I should be able to find a lightly used model from someone who decided it wasn't for them .

This really does happen a lot person thinks RC's are cool drops 300-400 dollars on a RC and then it sits and sit then they throw it up on ebay to try to get a little cash back .

Now this isn't a good way to save cash on buying Your first RC. If you do buy used buy in person and have it demonstrated to you. On ebay I try to never pay over 50% the original price on a used car/truck and I don't recommend you do either as there are too many unknowns .

But i will continue this in another post later . So back to the purpose of this post Now I haven't ruled out some other options totally as I really think I would enjoy  2wd buggy a lot more than Short Course Racing Which leads to my next post .

Well I went to a race this past weekend as a spectator only

Well a found out about a RC track close to where I live (not real close but close) I made a visit a while back on a practice day and was impressed by there 2 tracks 1 indoor offroad and 1 outdoor offroad and this past weekend I went back to watch a race .This past weekend they were hosting a race for the Circle City electric offroad championship series or CCEORCS for short . Can't say there was a huge crowd of spectators as pretty much everybody was there to race but there were a few . To my wife's dismay this definitely has stirred the idea of me going racing but first I have to free up some funds to buy a new 2wd buggy as they don't have a 2wd stadium truck class and I would also need to buy a transponder to participate but neither of these will prevent me from showing up on practice days to play around for a bit .

Well to wrap this up if your around the Indianapolis west side I recommend stopping in and checking them out they also have a small hobby shop on site and i'm sure if they don't have what you need they would be glad to order it for you .  For more details visit there website http://www.e2raceway.com/# or their face Book page.https://www.facebook.com/esquared.raceway?fref=ts .
