I had this on VHS when I was a kid. I watched it many times!
wish i could find the VHS tape we made back in the early 90's by duct taping my folks' video camera onto my RC10-T!!!! it only went about 10mph and bottomed out on every imperfection on our street but the footage looked like a legit bumper mounted camera on a real race car.
duke c - Hey, whatever hobby keeps your interest is what keeps you young.
I had this VHS too! Found it in the checkout isle at Acme supermarket when I was 11 or 12. I'm pretty sure I still have the tape stashed away somewhere.
@@unkulwilly dude I loved my RC10GT, man that was one awesome stadium truck, and with a novarossi 12, that puppy would fly
@@nitrogas5719 i had a 10GT also but with a Dynamite .12, was my first nitro RC. sadly i only had it a few months after i graduated then i sold it to a friend and joined the military.
lol, those ol 6ft antennas on their radios. i bent so many of those back in the day!
Ha ha I still have some rc cars and airplanes that I have owned for 15 years or more that still have the FM huge antenna radios. I have never bothered to upgrade the radios on those as I don’t run/fly them as often as my newer stuff.
Yes those long fishing rod/lightning rod antennas... having to change out the crystals so you could be on a different frequency...the good old days or as I call them the pre lipo battery era..
You and everyone else. We used to find old controllers and hope the antenna fit in the new one that got snapped.
I know right
I like how the outlaw Super Sprints pick the left front wheel off the ground coming out of the corners, just like the real thing!😁👍
Love the old cars, strong and durable. Wish I had one now.
@Radeonr9280x A Only the cheapy RTR stuff. When you start getting into the higher grade hobby kits, the drivetrains and suspension systems required to handle modern brushless power are so intense! I love this hobby :)
Took me back to my childhood. I raced slot cars on 8 lane track in a basement of a hobby shop. Thank you bro I needed that today 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Just like the 50’s, it seems like the 80’s documentary voice seems the same as the other
Dam i miss the old days of freedom.
Smh
Cry me a River.
@@santannaguzmansr.1107 why?
@@ThePinkPanth3r - Good question.
@@gratefultedd969 - Agree.
BnR vegas kid here. I remember this place. I went to a rave at the track. Smart use of a venue. It sprinkled as it does in Vegas but with green lasers it was raining glitter. now I'm old and into rc.
Same here full on droner nowadays but still love it all!
Man, I could only DREAM of owning a 1/4 car back in the day. I could barely afford to race 1/10 2wd electric gearbox cars. So cool to see this! thanks for posting!!!
1/10th scale you show off..I blew all my money on my 1/12th scale Marui Big Bear..took away from my Atari budget..LOL
This is so cool.look how happy everyone is!! These are the good ol days man!! Wish it was like this today!! I have a bunch of 5th scales but nothing like this!! Way cool
This Era paved the way for rc we have today thanks👍👌👊💪💤
Place reminds of an old race track we had back in the 80’s in Gardena California named “ Ascot “ amazing place lots of fun there.
@@stephenfrancis303 Do you recall “ Devils Dip ?
My childhood memory racing rc as a kid
Gotta love that 1970’s video quality.
Gotta agree with you, just like liquorish pizza (aka record albums).
A blast from the past.
Dale Smith 🎉that man puts it perfectly, sportsmanship , sportsmanship, sportsmanship i, learned that racing remote control cars, your channel gives me a total sense of nostalgia 😊😊😊
Lights out fantastic!
Im love old Times, and I stil play whit my 13 rc cars 🤟
I had the chance to see one of these events, and it was Awesome! I was too young to understand just how awesome they were, but still an awesome memory
I'm 57 and have never heard of this 1/4 scale racing. Looks like a lot of fun but expensive.
I wish RC was as popular today as it was back then.
It still is but more so in Europe. Here, the joy comes with more responsibility as perhaps should be the case.
R/C helicopters can do things that weren’t imaginable just 10 years ago.
Drones (which people equate to the R/C hobbyists) have been given a bad rap by those that feel their privacy may be invaded. Unfortunately, drones have been caught looking into two story windows.
i have two 1/4 scale rc cars very nice lots of fun
Buen video amigo.. Saludos DESDE MÉXICO 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽😢
Saludos
✌🏼🤠
I really wanted to see that 1/4 scale truck run
Wow this is old. Pretty cool to see how they evolved. I am surprised by how quick they are.
I think I saw hunter S. Thompson in the crowd
The era of fun, not bigotry and lies.
There has always been bigotry and lies -- and I do mean always.
It's just that we're far more aware of it in the Information Age. Info travels around the world at the click of a button now, whereas back in the day (before the era of this video), it could take months for info to reach the other side of the planet.
Not trying to burst your bubble. Reality does the bursting.
Back in early 90s. Trucker hats, koolaid socks and I miss the booty shorts. When everything had that neon color heartbeat stripe on it. Every graphic every truck. And we all had double wiper blades. Lol.
You've got a great memory. I tried to forget all of that.
Window sticker that said “HOTT”.
That’s so crazy to think how fas technology has come. Now there are cars that could not hit 100 mph but also hold 100 mph around that course
@2:30 that’s what hanging out with the fellas is all about lol no matter who it is
1997 opened garage with a wall of team associated and Losi nitros 1/10-1/8 scale racers
The shorts back then and the girls hair I miss the 80s and 90s
From the simple cars of the late 70s to this in 1990, the tech and innovation exploded in that era. These cars are still impressive til this day.
Wou, Very nice. It brings me to my begining of the Hobby. Tank you
Back when the government allowed people to have fun and didn't put the fear of death into everyone
The fuck are they supposed to say
Go cry a River somewhere else
That's only up north
I was 13 years old when this happened and you look at the Nitro powered cars now and go holy fucking shit the cars nowadays would blow these things out of the water just the electric ones
Its would be cool to see one of those cars in person that survived the years
My grandpa has my dad's from 1989. Its a 1/4 scale truggy and it all works just has weak servos or battery pack(most likely both). My father passed when I was 7 and my grandpa will not let me have that car🤣.
Do you know the exact name of the buggy
@@JuanD-je9cp There is actually 2. A buggy and a big truck. The buggy is a Team Associated RC12 LC. The truck is some kind of foreign Japanese or chinese but my grandpa says they didnt make one the size of that one in the US at the time so my dad ordered one from somewhere.
defiantly the soundtrack runs parallel with the TMNT soundtrack.same time period. Love 1/4 ingenuity, especially those quick change axles (25:01), love em, that + a nice V8 OR INLINE 4 stroke, and I am in heaven. Going 1/4 scale makes this a reality because of the bigger size.
Life was soooo much simpler back then. I miss those days!
@@sktona still simpler but ok.
@@descent815 it sounded simpler because there was no internet telling news story’s about what’s going wrong in the world 24/7
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work the good old days when rc was pure fun and those cars and trucks were really fast and fun 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Looks so old the 90s don’t seem that long ago till I see this wow I’m old
Love the Spectrum 48k synth music in background...
I remember getting the Monster Beetle back then and I was BOSS of the area!! Loved It that and my Hornet, life as a White Priveleged kid was GOOD!
Hilarious...
Just like RC is today. It hasn’t changed much!!
those were the days!!!!!!
George Brazil is a good driver no matter if it's a full size car or a small car my dad used to race with him.
this is amazing
I bet any one of those is worth a pretty penny nowadays. Cool upload 😎
I wonder how big of a crowd that event would bring in today 2012 (w/o-cv19)
These are some nice cars for today's standards, and these are from 1990? Peanut butter jealous! I want one!
The one I have is okay, but nothing compares to these bad boys 🏎️🏁
26:02 When a sausage kerb is ¼ the height of your vehicle, it is a good idea to not square them dead center.
This is sooooo cool to see! I really want to know what they used for servos and servo drivers(control boards) back then?
Then brushless and Lipo came along.
It did I thought 1/4 scale still run two stroke?
@@davejones1064 most if not all of these were nitro power at the time
@@zuestoots5176 lol what you talking about the only one in the video running a nitro motor was the motorcycle all the rest run two stroke I have never seen a 1/4 scale run a nitro motor
A1 golden
I was 5 in 90 I just remember the sound when they were racing in the target parking lot
I have two rc cars cant wait to see if I can still buy these 90s rc cars
Theses days you can buy a rtr traxxas xmaxx that’ll do 60 right out of the box
Uncle buck loves rc 😁
So cool
Ahhh, the good old days when the Tamiya Bruiser and Grasshopper ruled!
I, in NO way, do i miss having to fight some little local punk kid over a frequency pin! 👍
Thank God almighty for 2.4ghz!
Amazing
90s to 2024 😂
Min 2:07very smart guy
They need a velodrome!!
I just bought 4 tamija blackfoots and a clodbuster lol😁
Arrma limitless would lap the hell out of these cars
2021 now we have FPV racing drones
AWESOME VIDEO!!!!!
Prerequisites are as follows:
Dad shorts ✅
Mullet ✅
Sick mustache ✅
Richard Denson don't forget the trucker hat 😂😂😂
And a fat wallet.
This is FAR from a cheap hobby. Especially at this level.
@@Quazi-moto oh man I know. I own 10 of them and I can say they are worth more than my daily driver lol
Dam this was more than 30 years ago.....
Why can't this still be happening
Hey..! How come nobody is wearing masks...😷..... LOL 😂
Imagin a xo1 in one of these races
1990 i was playing video games and waisting A lot of time picking my nose.
I thought the tire burning “warm ups” was new
Bill in the 11 got robbed on the last lap😔
Wonder how many of these people are still alive.
Just see what this hobby has become.
No kidding
Check out fg 1/4 scale. Some crazy stuff compared to this.
Per usual they dont make them this way anymore. I miss the older versions.
Yup, they make them far better today.
Anyone else ever wounded where these cars are now? Like did they just get thrown in the trash or a shed? Did someone buy them?
Probably got recycled and used for parts on other vehicles
Have they done this in FPV yet?
probably but most people do line of sight also with the rc jets idk why i love fpv
I cannot be the only one thinking these are not 1/4 scale....
I wanted one so bad as a kid. My neighbor had ine and would run it up and down the street
Hey littlefoot, where's Sarah and Petri?
Imagine if this kind of racing at this scale were reborn with modern brushless electric setups? Those cars were cool, but the power is no where near what electrics are capable of today in terms of speed/power.
Theres a reason why 1/4 scale rc still run two strokes and not battery
Wow a like but DNg no Monster truck rolling or anything. Wow that sucked but still where did all these things go their awesome.
Why no monster truck footage what a tease 🤷♂️
Yeah I wish
Not much has changed 1/4 scale still run two strokes
I seen my share of tweaking mechanics
Seems more like 1/8 scale? Cars don't appear that big compared to a real one
I was thinking the same
It showed the same cause the whole time they never showed the big monster truck driving
23cc.
Lol
Arrest them all ....this is deemed illegal.....said ANY Democrat.
You have to bring politics into anything, bet ur fun to be around
@@rallycar6922 an absolute blast........it was a joke.....BUT you knew that......now you can sit down.
@@1Hogman1zz understandable have a nice day
Where are they now? Nitro RC start disappearing also. Now all I see is the boring electric RC that makes whining noise.
Not so boring if you can drive good you can make pleanty triks
