damn your lucky the only person i knew with another rc car was someone down the street, but he had a slow baja bug from hpi i think it was the dash..., but then he got rid of it and anyway my tc3 would smoke his car if it wernt for the pathetic 5ft long oval he made for it...,
back on topic... if i were you i wouldnt get a tamiya, i would go with something more like
Team Associatedor
HPI or something like that, i dont own any tamiya products except that my dad has a grasshopper from a while back but i dont think tamiya has much customization of the suspension or anything else for that matter..., if someone can prove me wrong please do...
but if you dont mind that then yeah i would think it would be a good buy, how much is it
