Some Examples of the Most PopularRC cars are great for people that have large paved areas (like empty parking lots) nearby. They are also well suited for the on road motorsports enthusiast that prefers high speed action on pavement. These scaled down racers can offer thrills similar to full scale racing. The purpose of this page is to look at a few of the most popular cars. There are more models than listed on this page, but these are some of the most popular ones. All of these examples shown below are rc nitro cars - powered by screaming nitro engines. HPI RS4 3 18 SS The HPI RS4 cars have been very popular over the years. HPI continues to update this great vehicle. The 18SS kit comes with a powerful 1.5HP nitro engine and 2 speed transmission and other advanced features that give it speed capabilities in excess of 50MPH!
HPI RS4 3 18SS The HPI RS4 3 are equipped with a shaft drive system. This shaft drive setup can be more durable than a belt drive. If there is small debris on the pavement where you are driving, then the rc car with shaft drive will be less susceptible to damage than ones equipped with open belt drive system. Small stones or other debris can get stuck between the belts and pulleys.

Originally equipped with a mild Pro .15 engine, these were not known for being the fastest. However, now that Traxxas uses the more powerful TRX 2.5 engine, the 4 Tec is one of the fastest around with claimed speeds in excess of 60mph! Traxxas Nitro 4 Tec Traxxas is known for their high quality models and the Nitro 4 Tec is an exciting performer equipped with the screamin' 2.5 engine that can rev up to speeds approaching 50,000RPM! That's pretty amazing for a nitro engine installed in a stock kit. The Nitro 4 Tec comes with a 2 speed transmission and belt drive system.
