Nitro's a waste these days as battery's and motors are out doing nitro engines
I spent 6 hours on a lake with fast electric boats screaming around while 2 blokes had nitro boats and 5 tool boxes between them, 1 bloke got his started after an hour, put it on the water and it died, they came from Bristol and gave up
Petrol engines are better as they're not affected by conditions as much as nitro engines are
I have a savage X I bought of a mate of mine, took the engine out, sold it and bought a brushless motor for it, I just turn up, connect the battery and off I go
