They should do an old school theme of Nascar from back in the day like Dale Earnhardt, Rusty Wallace, Richard Petty, Cole Trickle (from days of thunder)
@Cheese_is_priced his estate still has people handling those types of things to keep money coming in. Wouldn't be much different than any of the others. Just not easy since each one would need to do individual deals.
Not really Horizons hobby is well known for producing kits trying to get into the market. 1/10 scale oval is popular, 1/12 scale oval has been dead for years.
In the late 80s while in the Navy stationed in CHARLESTON I got into 1/10 electric RC racing in Moncks Corner, SC . We raced in the parking lot of a Hobby Shop there, and it was a blast ! The shop owner set up a oval track in the parking lot with 4 inch PVC pipe laid out in a large Rectangle, and the inside was defined by the Flexible drain pipe in a Oval configuration, held in place by disks from a disk plow places strategically around the oval and secured the pipe with Zip Ties. At the end of the nights racing we would break down the track and place the pipes on a small trailer and tie it down with a couple of straps. It was so much fun, there was even a points series, and several different classes from Stock, to Unlimited where pretty much anything goes with Hand built battery packs, hand made chassis pans, hand wound motors, and every trick imaginable to squeeze every bit of handling, and speed from the cars !we traveled to Rock Hill, SC once to a 1/10 scale of Charlotte Motor Speedway, that featured high bank turns, and covered Driver stands ! It also had Transponders that measured Laps, lap time, total time, Speed. My hybrid Hand built, MRC car was turning laps at 72 MPH, before the Transponders started to cause glitches in my receiver, and I had to call it quits ! Great fun ! I don't think the Rock Hill track still Exists.
I know Martin Truex Senior and JR. I have known JR since he was about 8 years old. When his Dad used to race at Wall Township Speedway, here in NJ.. Then JR raced there as well. Such a notice guy.
i would be interested in a video that goes over the cross comparability with the new Arrma Groms. Differences and what not. This seems the longest chassis so far and will have adjustable links as options. Maybe a Frankenstein long buggy or something
I’m definitely going to start a spec summer series for sure with these rigs. Give anyone in my hometown enough time to get one and adjust to it before the real racing begins
Not sure if he watches the channel, but he used to read my print magazine articles. I know he used to be big into RC boats which I wrote about. Nonetheless still cool. 😎
not yet, but unfortunately they are moving that way lol. They said the cup series will remain the same, but if it ever goes to electric I will stop watching and attending races.
The stock tires should last a while. I ripped a bunch of donuts to see if the tires would wear, but it didn’t do much to them. Thanks for watching brother!
Basically drift tyres as they are might need that tyre enhancer additive on them break them in get the top slippy surface layer off them like they do with the real one's
I love this so much. Thank you for the video. I’m still trying to get ahold of one here at our local hobby shop in Modesto California they keep leaving the shelves lol. Hello from @EnoughTractionRc
Appreciate the video! Still waiting on mine. Ordered in April from AMain and they still haven't shipped, and they removed their ship date from the site. LHS already received stock too.
I haven't owned an RC car in years, so I'm not up on current RC technology, but is it possible to convert or remove the drive line from the front and change this from AWD to RWD only?
This and 1RC cars are a great way to get into the sport. The 1RC cars are a little smaller but offer a better variety (sprint car, late model NASCAR, dirt ... etc). 1RC cars are a bit more expensive. If you're interested in a car smaller than 10th scale, Losi and 1RC are good options.
Mine should be here tomorrow just on the fence if I should order too then again I’m always on the fence if I should order two just in case of my son would like it
If it was the best NASCAR Cup car, it would have the number 5 on it. Met Martin a few times in Homestead, but he can't hang with Kyle, our points leader even after missing the Coke 600 at Charlotte in May.
Hopefully these don’t have weak rear toe links and burst into flames from rubber build up like the real cars. With that said, I’m going to order a Chase Elliott NAPA car and a Ryan Blaney Menard’s/Great Stuff car so my friend and I can race.
trash diffs that are guaranteed to go out. metal diffs are very hard to get. i would avoid this until arrma deals with the diffs for real cuz for a basher brand that's insane and for a racing brand that wants to hike the price that is unacceptable.
def grab the menards car get some deep dark purple paint and some camel decals a bright green 23 you make a mr. exitement jimmy spencer smokin joes car start wrecking your friends and going to the front!
I got a tony Stewart one from Walmart some years ago. That thing was fast as 💩 for being a Walmart piece. Actually way bigger and faster than this one.
The point was people should stop complaining that the car is unrealistic because it’s 4wd. There are many parts on the car that are unrealistic. Just enjoy we have something that resembles a NASCAR and that anyone can get into it easily.
Shame on Losi for actually wanting to make higher margins on a low end, high volume product. What a shameful thing to want to make a profit to run a strong business. 😂 Maybe people could remember that before hating on Traxxas, or at least equally spread the hate to all successful businesses that have employees and health plans.

Cool idea, but they’d probably have a lot of licensing hoops to jump through.
should i even say why an Earnhardt themed car would be almost impossible to liscense? It would be cool asf tho
@Cheese_is_priced his estate still has people handling those types of things to keep money coming in. Wouldn't be much different than any of the others. Just not easy since each one would need to do individual deals.
At least decal sets from the after market.
Sign me up for a Richard Petty car!!!
Get a few buddies, a case of beer, a few cones and a couple of these. It'll be like the real thing in the front yard!
Absolutely. I was sitting there on the tailgate of the Jeep just running laps. Good times to be had with this release!
@@rcdriver if it brings more people into the hobby, that's always a great thing!
Driveway league racing!😁
I'm in!
They're cool and I've been on the fence - now I must have one. Great video my friend.
I hope these do really well and bring new people into the hobby .
Some of the best racing I've had was in stock class , just driver vs driver .
Stock is where it's at. I'll be buying these in pairs.

I picked up the Chase Elliot NAPA 9 car. The local track is going to have a box stock class. Should be a hoot.
Nice! Box stock class of these will be awesome!
@@rcdriver if you are ever in Kansas City come by Fastlane Raceway. All manner of RC racing going on there.
Awesome review! These cars are super cool!

Nice race car. Thanks for showing

Very nice, I cannot wait to grab one!
I’m definitely going to start a spec summer series for sure with these rigs. Give anyone in my hometown enough time to get one and adjust to it before the real racing begins
Dang, that livery is nuts. Need me one. I don't know the drivers, but had picked that just on colors.
Use sand bean bags as your infield barriers works great and unlike cones they dont go flying when clipped.
Another great option.
That's cool that Martin watches your channel. He is one on my favorite driver's. He's a great guy 🏁🏁🏁🏁. Thank you for the video!!!
Not sure if he watches the channel, but he used to read my print magazine articles. I know he used to be big into RC boats which I wrote about. Nonetheless still cool. 😎
Brushed!! Love it!!♥️♥️ Perfect car to drive the whole day in a circle.
It's absolutely super cool!
"NASCARs aren't electric, either." Love it! Glad they went with a 4WD, let's get more people into the hobby!
Exactly!
Awesome video mate!!!!
"Well, NASCARs aren't electric, either." Great line, lol.
not yet, but unfortunately they are moving that way lol. They said the cup series will remain the same, but if it ever goes to electric I will stop watching and attending races.
Why you don't like electric cars?
NASCAR race cars. NASCAR stands for National Association of Stock Car Auto Racing 🙂
Lol not yet !
@@JorgeAntonioRubio81 nowhere does it say stock has to be petrol based. Just say you've sold your sold to gasoline powered vehicles
Literally the thought crossed my mind how cool it would be to have an RC nascar, and here it is!
Now, can I get this in the Uk?
I have the Richard Petty, Mello Yello, the pink and white Cole Trickle car, and the Kodiak car of the old tyco cars. Still in boxes to look at.
I’d love to get one of these some day.
Nice race car.
Looks like a lot of fun , I wish they had a clear body.So we could design it the way we want , Great video thank you
They do sell the clear body’s so you can custom your own nascar
Just in time for Mini season! Might have to do up a #3 body to match the 1/7 scale 😎
Better use the right car brand decals this time. 😆
@@rcdriver pssssh purists
Made me think of the nitro 4 tec for some reason. Take me back!!
Great review I might have to pick one up 👍
Still waiting for mine to ship
As a Mojave Grom owner, this intrigues me...
19 for sure is the best looking one! Wonder how long the tires will last? Great video!
The stock tires should last a while. I ripped a bunch of donuts to see if the tires would wear, but it didn’t do much to them. Thanks for watching brother!
Nice video! Just picked up the "5"
Awesome ! Enjoy!
Basically drift tyres as they are might need that tyre enhancer additive on them break them in get the top slippy surface layer off them like they do with the real one's
That does look pretty cool!
Why does his voice remind me of the NFL Madden game broadcasters when shooting the driving scenes 😂. Very nice video
You got the bast one and the only one they didn't have in stock 😢 that camry lloks the best in my opinion.
I love this so much. Thank you for the video. I’m still trying to get ahold of one here at our local hobby shop in Modesto California they keep leaving the shelves lol. Hello from @EnoughTractionRc
Keep trying! You’ll enjoy it! Thank YOU for watching!
The common Grom architecture could make for some fun wide/narrow/long/short Frankenstein options for the different models.
just picked up the same one its definitely cool
Awesome! Enjoy!!
Figure eight racing would be awesome!! They are light enough that the impacts probably won’t break them 👀
As a longtime NASCAR fan, these are sick!!! I'd probably get Chase Elliott #9 version. Sadly, just don't have anywhere to run it, near my place. 🙃
Do in your neighborhood like I do
@@acerosstine49 I live out in the country, lol
@@M_Hall34 u can play with on compact dirt road it won’t mess it up unless you don’t blow it out every once in awhile and get the debris out
I used to do that
My Favorite Nascar driver so it would DEF be the first1 I get of the losi rc nascars.. and then a mustang 1 after that,lol
Appreciate the video! Still waiting on mine. Ordered in April from AMain and they still haven't shipped, and they removed their ship date from the site. LHS already received stock too.
Why did horizon hobby stop selling these?Where can I get them now?
I might pickup the napa one and the bass pro shop one
For a spec class sure.
Plenty of stock car options for pan cars.

Can recommend driving indoors on carpet with slicks
I ordered the 8 Kyle Busch LUCAS Chevy! If I was getting a second, it would be the MTJ!
Nice! Enjoy it when it arrives!!
You can get bodies I think they universally fit
Your the best in the business
And I have the best viewers! Thanks for the compliment and for watching!
take the front dog bones out and stiffen the diff if you want rear wheel drive
😢 why 1:12 scale
How the decals on it any kinks are bubbles?
Change directly to slightly more expensive wheel bearings and it will roll easier and have better battery life
I'm here looking for a retro Intimidator 3...😊
I wonder if it would handle brushless and a gyro. I dont want to wait for a Grom Infraction.
I’m sure it would. I’m thinking about trying the Furitek system I made a video on in this car.
@@rcdriver I would love to see that! YTB
It’s been done already. I don’t remember who but it’s on UA-cam.
Right? This could possible fill that role.
@@rcdriverplease do
I got the number 12 Ford mustang and my first upgrade will be the heatsink and turnbuckles and camber links 😮😎👍
Is the wheel Hex 12mm like the Groms? The description says its 8mm...
Question is where would you place and plug in a transponder in the car. I’ve been looking for a place
You can get a Y-harness and run your fan and transponder with it.
Where can I buy this model sir?
I want one that says Cole Trickle
Mine should be here tomorrow just on the fence if I should order too then again I’m always on the fence if I should order two just in case of my son would like it
This looks a or like a big Arrma Mojave Grom?🤷🏻♂️
Sooo…?
I would buy one of these if the had a vintage trans am body
that looks big for a 12th scale? But they do look awesome.
Got #19 too
If it was the best NASCAR Cup car, it would have the number 5 on it. Met Martin a few times in Homestead, but he can't hang with Kyle, our points leader even after missing the Coke 600 at Charlotte in May.
😂😂😂😂😂 larson sucks 😂😂
@@TrevorMetzger-hi8nm He sure did yesterday.
Super random but does anyone know where to find a jeep mighty body?
For $180, that’s really pushing it. I would’ve expected to see like either 150 or a $200+ brushless version. The 380 motor gets HOT.
It's licensed, so you're paying for the accurate bodies and the team liveries.
Haha 180$ isn’t that much for what you’re getting
@@sons-braddalton not really, you can expect to get double the speed and brushless for $200 or less
@@guest6423 I guess that’s fair but still, I feel like they should’ve done better with the platform as whole.
@@dylanwhite6539 where? What RC?
Got Kyle Larson and chase elliott in the Mail and then just today went and picked up Ryan Blaney, I figured 3 cars and get the other 3 bodies
Good plan!
What scale is it?
1/12th
Seem well built little buggers...
Of course any one can drive it. It's a brushed wal mart toy but upgradable
Hopefully these don’t have weak rear toe links and burst into flames from rubber build up like the real cars. With that said, I’m going to order a Chase Elliott NAPA car and a Ryan Blaney Menard’s/Great Stuff car so my friend and I can race.
Didn't Traxxas do Nascar?
2:28 preach
#truthbombs 😎
Come on Rusty, bump it up to at least 10th scale!!!! that's doing about 25mph, that's 300 scale mph!
trash diffs that are guaranteed to go out. metal diffs are very hard to get. i would avoid this until arrma deals with the diffs for real cuz for a basher brand that's insane and for a racing brand that wants to hike the price that is unacceptable.
Too bad it has not been announced for Europe yet :(
Yes but, can it turn right?😁

Toyotaaaaaahhhhh
And if they want rear wheel drive they can take the front dog bones out..
I got a tony Stewart one from Walmart some years ago. That thing was fast as 💩 for being a Walmart piece.
Actually way bigger and faster than this one.
If you really want it to be to scale 2wd, just remove the front differential
You shouldn't of said Nascar isn't electric. Someone said that about F1 😢
nothing against electric , but...

@@rcdriver i was being sarcastic with some sad irony...
And yes I understood but some won't your correct. F1 went electric for little while.

Junk if Traxxas already tried this years ago what makes horizon think this will be any better
It’s looks like a cheap inexpensive level 1 RC
Very affordable
Shelf queens unless you have a big carpet track or really sweet paved oval track.
Definitely need traxxas to make a competition to these
Shame it's 1/12th
Shame on Losi for actually wanting to make higher margins on a low end, high volume product. What a shameful thing to want to make a profit to run a strong business. 😂
Maybe people could remember that before hating on Traxxas, or at least equally spread the hate to all successful businesses that have employees and health plans.
No tools come with the car 😢😢
Is the stupidest thing ever when you make a NASCAR all-wheel drive it's never been all wheel drive and never will be.
I like 2 WD
To get the real affect of R/C is to build the kit version, R.T.R. sucks takes most of the fun away!!!!
Damn no Denny Hamlin…
4WD NASCAR 😂
Yup! Smart of them to do it in an RC Car.
