I'm a beginner RC car enthusiast, and I'm confused about whether gas or electric will give top speeds. I'm more familiar with gas RC cars, but how fast can an electric RC car go?
, you’ll frequently debate if gas or electric is faster. RC cars are manufactured for different reasons. A well-made hobby RC car can go as fast as 70 mph. If the RC car is modified or made for drag racing, then they have the potential to reach speeds of more than 100 mph.
There is enough information to claim that electric RC cars are much faster in general than gas-fueled cars. The electric RC cars use LiPo batteries and a brushless motor that helps them achieve top speeds.
