If you’re looking for the perfect way to spend your Saturday, RC car bashing is where it’s at.
Whether you’re flying off jumps, tearing through dirt trails, or racing head-to-head with friends, bashing your RC car is the ultimate way to unleash some weekend adrenaline.
Here’s why this Saturday’s RC bash should be at the top of your weekend to-do list.
1. Get Ready to Bash, Not Just Race
While traditional RC racing is all about speed and precision, bashing is about pushing your car to the limits—off-road style.
Imagine launching your RC car off a dirt ramp, navigating rough terrain, or smashing through obstacles without worrying about track times.
It’s chaotic, it’s fun, and best of all, it’s for everyone, no matter your skill level.
Why We Love It: You don’t need a perfectly smooth track. Got a backyard, an empty parking lot, or a local park? You’ve got the perfect bashing ground.
2. Building Tough, Bashing Hard
One of the best parts about RC car bashing is building your car to withstand anything the day throws at it.
Whether you’re reinforcing your chassis, upgrading to heavy-duty tires, or adding shock absorbers, the customization options are endless.
You’ll learn to fine-tune your car for both durability and performance.
Pro Tip: Before heading out, double-check your car’s screws, suspension, and gears. Bashing can be rough, but the more prepared your car is, the longer you’ll last without a breakdown.
3. Perfect for the Whole Crew
RC bashing isn’t a solo sport. Get your friends together and turn your Saturday into an epic RC showdown.
Everyone can set up their cars, take turns attempting the biggest jumps, or just see who can survive the roughest terrain.
Want to add a competitive twist?
Create simple challenges like “longest jump,” “best crash,” or “last car standing.”
True Story: We’ve seen drivers tape GoPros to their cars just to capture the slow-motion magic of an epic crash.
Trust us, bashing is just as much about the fails as it is about the wins.
4. Bashing on a Budget
Worried about breaking the bank?
Don’t be.
Unlike competitive racing, which can sometimes require high-end equipment, bashing is all about having fun with what you have.
You can start with an entry-level car and upgrade as you go.
Even budget-friendly models can handle some serious bashing when built right.
Budget Bash Tip: If you’re just starting out, look for durable, affordable RC cars that can take a beating.
Brands like Redcat Racing, ARRMA, and Traxxas offer models built specifically for rough play.
5. Make it a Family Day
Got kids? RC bashing is the perfect way to get the whole family involved.
Set up a few jumps in the backyard, and let them go wild.
The simplicity of driving an RC car makes it easy for anyone to pick up, and before you know it, your Saturday will turn into a family competition to see who can pull off the coolest stunts.
Pro Tip for Parents: Start with cars that have adjustable speed settings so kids can drive at a slower, more manageable pace.
As their skills grow, crank up the speed for more fun.
6. Post-Bash Maintenance: The Essential Cooldown
After a day of hard bashing, your RC car will need some TLC.
Make sure to clean out any dirt or debris, check for any loose parts, and inspect your tires and suspension.
Doing a quick post-bash check-up means your car will be ready for next Saturday’s adventure without needing major repairs.
Pro Tip: Keep a small toolkit with you when you head out to bash.
Quick fixes on the spot will keep you running without downtime.
7. The Best Local Spots to Bash
Not sure where to take your RC car? Parks, dirt trails, BMX tracks, and even gravel parking lots make for awesome bashing grounds.
And don’t forget, your own backyard can easily be transformed into an RC playground.
Lay down some wood planks, dig out a few ramps, and you’ve got your own bashing haven right at home.
