Hooning around with RC cars! I’ve always wanted to see how an electric rc car would do drag racing a real car, now I know. We were using a Traxxas Slash 4×4 and an E-Revo, both are brushless running Lipo batteries.
I was only racing to about the 330′ mark because by that point most of the cars had caught me.
We were at Royal Purple Raceway for the ASA (Automotive Service Association) and BG Products race day. There weren’t many cars so we started lining up the rc cars on the return road and drag racing the cars on the track.

RC Cars vs Real Cars
Was denkt Ihr, wer gewinnt?
http://ow.ly/JUPV5
Sweet
I’d have liked to see the XO-1 take on some of these. Of course, with a few
bucks ANY RC car can take on the cars here. I know of 1/18th scale Dromida
trucks that could compete with the 1/10 vehicle that was racing the real
cars. A buddy of mine raced at the Regional levels and he’s got his dromida
modified to the point we figure it’s doing around 60 — up from 20 stock. I
know of Slash trucks that can do over 80. Modify an XO-1 just right and I’m
betting on 150. What some newcomers to RCing don’t always know is that
while YES Nitro vehicles are heavier and sound MUCH cooler, Electrics beat
them out in every other aspect. I Miss my 1/10th Traxxas Nitro 4-Tec First
Gen, but I am happier with a pair of Dromida trucks to race on weekends.
1)Cheaper 2) Cleaner 3)Cheaper to fix 3) Easier to fix 4) Girlfriend
doesn’t get (as) mad because it doesn’t make such a big mess. She still
gets mad when I take them apart and clean them though :D
I have not laughed so hard in years :D
If you pretend the engine sounds are coming from those rcs.. that pretty
funny! Nice vid man!
Okay, who’s your money on? The real drag racing car or the RC car?!
#rcracing
0:33 the little wheelie the rc car did brought so much joy. lol
They need the Traxxas XO-1 to show actual size what’s up!
Who’s your money on? The real drag racing car, or the rc car?! #rccars

Traxxas Slash 2wd?)))
They should have used a R/C car that was somewhat aerodynamic.
On my opinion the rc thing looks faster
Hey know way I go to royal purple
The real cars lack in acceleration
If only the range was longer. seems about an 1/8 mile distance before
signal fades still pretty impressive
I wish those corvets were mine
Nice work.
No x01? How abought rcmax baja 3 speed street conver or a losi?
The rc car is called a TRAXXAS SLASH go to my channel to see it and sub if
you can
This is great! Cool video!
It made me laugh seeing that Slasher / E-Revo is chasing the Corvette.
No offense tho, just funny.
thats pretty sick!! my mamba rustler wil do 0-60 in 2.5 seconds, top speed
is 135 mph and puts out 8.6HP
Anybody else think it’s fucking retarded to have drag racing videos with no
e.t./mph?
The lambourghini could beat those with high acceleration and high speed
holly molly
RC cars have better acceleration
That VE sound’s sexy.
traxxas are just like muscle cars: only good in straight line…
You picked the slow cars dude. Should gone with a T/F dragster! Lol
0:50 i think with the EVO “Holy Shit”
Dam
rc cars are crazy:D
Omg
Amsome
Weres the traxxos xo1
Petrol car: Low acceleration, high topspeed.
Electric car: High acceleration, low topspeed.
Whoa haha that’s awesome!!
Lol
wicked
that is bull
I HAVE 2 RC CAR AND IT KICK ASS hpi
was that a evolution i saw going up against a rc car… WOW!!
