> RC Car Action's Reader's Choice Awards
Are you passionate about just one RC vehicle? Do you think it's the BEST? Well, why not let other people know you feel that way! On March 15th, 2007, RC Car Action's readers choice award will end. So if you haven't already gone and voted for your best/favorite rc cars, trucks and drivers - go do so now here. Better hurry, you only have till Thursday. Oh, I forgot to mention one thing - you can win the winning car or truck!!! (or driver? just joking.) - so there's some incentive for you. Go Go!
> RC Car Action's Fastest RC Car Challenge
Other news from RC Car Action - last year they held 'RC Car Action's Fastest RC Car Challenge' - the same is happening this year, with the same rules and all. You can check out the rules here. This year though, there's some fierce competition. People are trying to build RC cars that can go 200 mph!!
Like for example this guy Nick. He's trying to build an RC car that can go 200 mph. You can check out his blog. He's getting most of his supplies donated from companies, and seems to know what he's doing. He also has some cool videos at the bottom of his blog of other really fast rc cars - so go check it out.
> 200 MPH RC Car Video!
Here's a video of a an RC nitro car going 200 mph. It looks absolutely crazy fast - but, let's see that thing go 200 mph WITHOUT any help at the start like these guys do it - the whole 'wind up' thing in my eyes seems kind of cheap - so for me I wouldn't say that this thing can do 200 MPH on its own... but it's pretty cool either way. Enjoy!

New HPI Racing Kit
> New Nitro RS4 3 18SS+ Supersport Kit From HPI Racing
HPI Racing released a new version of their RS4 kit - the RS4 3 18SS+ Supersport. The + basically means it has cool classic body shells that you can get with it.
It's more durable, with many of the of the parts made of hard metal, all attached to a solid aluminum chassis. The drivetrain is extra durable now too, keeping dirt and rocks and that type of thing away from the gears.
The car can reach speeds of 81+ km/h, so if you're looking for a fast kit to assemble, I think this one's worth a look. Click here to check out the full details.
> Website Update
The website is coming along great. There's going to be some great new changes to a few articles on the site. All the reviews are going to be re-done to include pro and con features, as well as videos and pictures included in EVERY review done at Everything RC Cars.
Also, a 'how-to' section and FAQ page will be updated shortly with some great tips on nitro engine tuning, etc.
The comparison page will be updated with some great new comparisons, all on one page so you can see the pro and cons of each vehicle without having to browse to different pages of the site.
An RC Glossary is going to be added, so for those of you that are new to RC and don't really understand the 'lingo' - you can check out the terms to get familiar so you don't feel so lost :)
That's just a few things - I don't want to give away too much, as we have some great things in store for our visitors!
> Video Of An RC Car Jumping a House!
I don't know how many of you have seen this, but this is one great RC video. I'll let it speak for itself!!

Vroom Vroom!
Hey there,
February has been a crazy month, I just moved into a new place and got all settled in so I'll have a lot more time for the blog!
> HPI Baja 5B Video
Let's start off with this video of the HPI Baja 5B. This thing is incredible and is a shame that I haven't had the honour to drive one yet. Just watch the huge jumps this thing can take!! The cleaning on these machines doesn't seem to be too bad, but I would recommend a good cleaning after every other use. Think of RC cars like a normal car, minus the expense haha. Anyway, on to the video...
Pretty cool? I think so too. Check out more on the HPI Baja 5B.
> Quick Tip:
Having problems with your engine? Give it a good cleaning! The best way to do that is to clear the engine by doing the following:
1. First off, raise the idle to ¼ turn. This will help stop the engine from stalling. (The idle screw and not the low-end needle)
2. Wait until the engine temp reaches up to about 145-150 degrees.
3. Richen (turn to the left) the top end screw by a full turn.
4. Hold the carburetor wide open, continue richening (turning left) the top end until the engine comes close to stalling (you should be able to hear it cutting out). This should flush out all the nasty dirt, oil and grime that get stuck in the carburetor and engine.
You might also consider tighting all the screws and bolts, replacing old fuel, etc.
> Website News:
We've added a bunch of videos into the video section now. See videos the HPI firestorm, rc drift cars, rc car racing, rc car crashes & stunts and a lot more. Check out these rc car videos now!
A lot more FAQs will be added shortly. Battery info, engine tuning tips - you name, it will be there so look for that soon.
That's all for now, more updates coming regularly. Talk to you all soon!
