i used to be into r/c cars, i had a losi gtx, an associated t3, a kyosho turbo inferno mp5.
also did some dabbling in r/c glow planes and airboats.
its alot of fun but one day i realised that it would probably be more fun to do that stuff in real life so i sold my r/c gear and got into offroad rally cross. its much more fun to actually be IN a car drifting at 60mph through a dirt course than it is to race r/c at a hobby track. and in all honesty its not much more expensive.
