Everything I have learned about nitro cars, I taught myself. The best way to learn about those little fukers is to take them apart and put them back together. If you have any knowledge of how a 2stroke engine works, it should be no problem whatsoever.

Another thing about nitro cars is that they will nickle and dime you to death. With mine, I would drive it untill something broke. The parts were usually only $5-$10 but that shiit adds up after you do it about 20 times...
