Nike Basketballs

Nike, unlike Wilson or Spalding, does not create equipment exclusively for basketball. For this reason, Nike basketballs are not quite as popular among basketball pros and aficionados as the Wilson or Spalding. Basketball professionals may not quite swear by Nike balls, but they still have their own fan following, owing partly to their wide variety in snazzy designs and colors.

The Nike NBS 200, for example, is thought by many to be the best indoor basketball. It has a soft core that creates a bounce delightful to the basketball buff, especially on smooth, synthetic indoor courts. It is light and soft, and many players love the throw it affords. But the NBS 200 is not considered as durable as the Spalding basketball, since it loses its bounce after a few weeks of constant use.

What is good about Nike, though, is the sheer range it offers when it comes to colors and designs. Go to a website like Amazon.com, and it becomes clear at once. The Nike 1000 All courts Pearlized model is silver, with a shiny mirror-like surface. It is a good training ball, although not recommended for league matches or rough play. That does not stop basketball lovers from purchasing it, owing to its flashy looks. Amazon retails it for $23 (size 7). The Nike Lebron James All Courts basketball, on the other hand, is available in a combination of three colors: red, black and white. It sells for $25 on Amazon, though the price varies depending on the website and retailer.

The Nike 2000N Touch has a smooth, shiny appearance and retails for $40 on websites like SportDepot.com. The Nike Cage Grip, as the name suggests, has a meshed appearance, facilitating a better grip. SportsDepot retails it for $24. The Nike Shatter is available in a combination of three colors: red, white, and blue or black, red, and yellow. It has a rough appearance, owing to a grainy synthetic leather surface. It is good for both indoor and outdoor play, and costs around $30.

Nike also manufactures basketballs for outdoor play, like the Nike 1500. It is available in mens (size 7) and womens (size 6) NBA recommended dimensions.

Nitro Powered RC Cars - Tips for Choosing Your First Gas RC Car

RC (radio controlled) cars, especially the nitro or gas powered RC cars, are becoming increasingly popular. With speeds up to 70 mph, realistic looks, and racing clubs in virtually every large city, it's easy to see why.

If you want to join this exciting hobby, there're a few things you should consider before you buy your first nitro-powered RC car. The basic considerations are: size, type, 2 or 4-stroke motor, maintenance, 2 or 4 wheel drive, and ready-to-run (rtr) or kit cars.

Sizes

The two most popular sizes to choose from are 1/8 and 1/10 scale. 1/10th scale is the industry standard for on-road racers, while 1/8th is more popular for off-road trucks and buggies. The larger 1/8th scale on road car comes standard with a 2 or 3 speed automatic transmission.

Types

The touring and racing cars are are the popular choice for on-road use. For best performance, they should be run on a smooth surface.

Trucks and buggies are the choice if off-road action is what you want. Though not as fast as the touring and racing styles, they are still very impressive and extremely rugged as well. And since a smooth surface is not required, they also have the advantage of being able to run just about anywhere.

Motors

Nitro powered RC motors come available in the popular 2-stroke or the less conventional 4- stroke versions. The primary difference is that the 2-stroke motor, much like a weed eater or chain saw, requires a fuel oil mixture. The 4-stroke motor has an oil reservoir and can run on straight fuel. The 2 stroke engine has the advantage of producing higher rpm's (revs up faster) and is more suitable for racing. The 4 stroke engine has more power and torque and is better for offroad use.

The most popular 2-stroke motor is the 23cc (cubic centimeter) displacement engine. It's popularity is due to the amazing 2.5 HP of output it produces. The resulting high speeds and acceleration are what RC racers love.

Additionally, motors come with or without a pull start. The ones without a pull start are cheaper, but you'll also need a starter box.

Maintenance for Nitro Powered RC Cars

Maintenance is a definite requirement of running a nitro powered vehicle. Most hobbyist love tweaking and tuning their vehicles. In addition, you'll need to maintain certain parts such as:

Clutch
Differential
Air Filter
Header and
Pull start cord

2 or 4 Wheel Drive

If you're new to the hobby, you'll find a 2wd car less expensive and easier to work on. The 4wd car has the advantage of better traction and handling in turns which makes it a better choice when you're ready to race.

Kits or Ready to Run (RTR) Rc Cars

Nitro powered rc cars come in kits or ready-to-run right from the box. The primary difference is the whether you want to save time with a RTR car or save money with a kit. However, because of the assembly process, kits better prepare you for required maintenance.

If you choose to build an rc car, don't expect to finish in one sitting. To avoid mistakes, familiarize yourself with the instructions first and get your work area prepared. Some of the things you'll need are:

Small No. 1 and 2 Phillips and flathead screwdrivers
Soap - as a dry lubricant for tight parts
Extra fuel line - to hold screws while positioning
Needle nose and regular slip joint pliers
Flush cutter
Hobby knife with no. 11 blades

When you assemble the car, make sure to work in a well-lit, uncluttered area. You should keep the parts and tools separated using tin boxes, trays, or even an old fishing tackle box.

These are a few of the basics you'll need to know before you buy your first nitro rc car or truck. You should expect to pay around $400 for a complete beginner setup. The price will vary a little depending on whether you choose a kit or RTR and how many tools you need.

Whether you race or just practice by yourself, get ready for a lot of fun!
