We all have a dream/love of building and owning certain RCs,but what would be the ONE that you would get the most enjoyment from driving off a cliff and into a pool of molten lava!!

Anything that's not Tamiya.
No, just kidding. You're making me think really really hard about it at least!

That first gen tmaxx I made the mistake of buying. What a POS.

Tamiya: as I am not into streetcars most of their TT, TA whatever cars and some of the recent releases like the mud blaster II

For real: most of those rc rip offs they sell that are build with cheap electronics and parts.

I agree with anything non Tamiya!!

But saying that, I wouldn't be looking at restoring any of the models that have OTT wheelbases and tyres. I had the original wheelie Pajero, but the re-release falls in to the OTT category (for me anyway).

This for me. I like models to have at least some "scaleness" about them, even if they're not models of real 1:1 cars.

At first I thought "what a silly question, I wouldn't destroy any RC car" ... but thinking about it, the list of cars I loathe enough seem to be growing...

- those nasty Bycmo Suburu "cars" from the DeAgostini partwork
- the recent "Willy" cars, especially that new Jimny thing
- the Street Rover
- anything recent that tired to play the "realism" card but with a lexan body
- Jun Watanabe Hornet
- Any petrol car
- Any nitro car, unless it's old and has been "put beyond use" by filling the cylinder with lead
...

My preferred method of destruction would be different though - I'm thinking clay pigeon trap & a 12 bore

Yes I have one of those Bycmo Subaru's! My daughter is looking forward to driving it (was going to bin it) I bought it off eBay as it was listed as a Tamiya, but kept it as it was a cheap buy!
Maybe driving it into a bear trap would be fun!!

Anything nitro, but particularly a Marauder (It would probably survive the fall though...)
FG (& copies of) - absolutely terrible design & I've no idea how they get away with selling them!
Monster beetle/Blackfoot/Mudblaster - again, shocking...
Highlift
Any of the new blackfoot chassis'd abortions
Undecided about Thundershot etc - they don't need a cliff to destroy them...
Wouldn't WANT to destroy an SRB, but cliffing one would be hilarious with the explosion of bits at the bottom (& the likely resulting crater).
Grasshopper - interested to know exactly what they'll take to break - I used to drive mine down the stairs & it always survived!
