HELP!!!!!!! i don't want to but both it's too much money that i'd rather spend on my truck........

i would renew RCCA cos you get stories and goss from such a wide range of topics.. and then keep your eyes on the RC nitro mag and if one month they have a great article on a tmaxx get it. well just my 2 cents worth anyway

RCCA holds more information for anything. With tips, reviews etc. RC Nitro is good too since i have a subscription for it also but RCCA is better in the long run....

I have both too(I'm a charter subscriber to RC nitro),but RCCA is better.The one thing that bugs me about RC nitro is they seem to run the same articles(different writers,same vehicle),just a month or 2 later.:(

The Devil's work here is done :D
I just want to see one person on this forum actually say not to go with RCCA!!!
Actually, I only read RCCA, it has more stuff. Just my opinion since you asked, heh!
There is another magazine, evidently just called "R/C Car." This magazine is supposedly going to have the info in it from my race this past weekend. I can't seem to find it on any search engine on the internet, and I actually checked Barnes & Noble the other night. They had no clue!! Anyone out there know of them?

neither, xtreme r/c.
i can't stand rcca or rcn purely because of their wishy washy biased reviews. EVERY single review in their magazines praise that item highly never having the balls to say that the product isn't all that it's cracked up to be or that maybe it just plain sucks. their reviews are merely indepth definitons and bs about the thing's features instead of the real world performance.
o and about 1/2 the magazine are ads and with their biased reviews mixed with out, sometimes it's hard to tell which is which.
anyway that's my 2 cent

Well, I HAVE tried my LHS and they don't carry it, but the home track that we had the race at is over an hour away...haven't tried them yet. I guess they will probably have some copies. I was kind of hoping someone might have knowledge of a website where they might post "teasers" and preliminary pics of the event. It would be cool if I made it into the magazine (they way I drove though, probably not :rolleyes: ).

I partially agree with with you. RCCA is pretty good but when it comes to reviews there all the same even if it sucks big time. I think they need to be more honest in their opinions because giving all the new cars coming out good ratings isnt going to get buyers anywhere. It will be more like which car should i get like you see in the forums all the time......
