1/5 scale
Looking to go bigger this year (last year we went 1/10 formula one electric because all of our nitros needed attention, might sell a few of them off). Thinking of getting (or may have already bought and waiting on UPS) a 1/5 scale gasoline powered buggy. Curious if anyone else has one or has any input on them in general.

Do you mean something along the lines of the HPI Baja 1/5? If so, I now envy you greatly. I've seen these run around my local flying field by some of the members that are also into land, and I must say, they're both **** quick and fairly agile for such a large RC.
Plus, running off gasoline is a plus with Nitro going for approximatly $20 a gallon (at least around here). Once you get some, you must post pictures/review and possible video.  Cheers, Kyle.

Ive seen a couple at my lhs, there pretty big, i love the look of them. Knowing its got a 2 stroke weed eater motor(basically) Im sure it will last a large amount longer than a nitro motor, not to mention its alot better on gas!
