Hello everyone I just joined today and I wanted to ask you guys about the RadioShack hummer mattracks h2 car I have it I got it for chrismas like 5? Years ago I used it in the snow but one day it didn't work so I kept it in the shed for years and one day me and my friend pulled it out (long story) and it worked
it's a great car but what do you think and I want a new one I usually get them from RadioShack and I don't get those little cheap ones that break the next day lol I want one with a real battery as in a heavy duty one and a real engine or whatever it's called that's in the one I have any suggestions oh and I saw one at radio shack I wanted to take a look at it but the lady said no I don't remember what it was called

Hello EJoe,
Well if you are wanting a RC car that you can enjoy for many years and upgrade as you see fit would stay away from Radio Shack
. Look up your local hobbytown or if you are fortunate enough to have a local hobby shop go in there and check stuff out. If not Tower Hobbies is a great place start.

Radio Shack used to in the 90s and 80s. For the OP, a Duratrax Evader is his best bet; http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...=LXAAMW**&P=ML

Ahh so ur after another big 1/6 scale hummer with tracks rather than wheels?
like this...
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Rc-Hummer-h2...51283269412%26
ive had one very similar but with wheels. I fitted a hobby grade servo, speed controller and battery and it was easy twice as fast....but....
One little crash cracked open the the front bulkhead and 1/2 the diff carrier and wheel were ripped off... Complete write off.
Some day I plan to fit the body to a true hobby grade RC car
