Want to try again..
Hey, I used to have a HPI MT2... but I sold it cause I gave up. Starting with a nitro was too hard. So I want to get started on electric.. I want to get a on-road electric car. Something that goes FASTER than those RadioShack pieces of junk and maybe if possible can keep up with a nitro r/c.. I don't know which company or what car? .. which would you recommend? Help me pleasee!!!

Traxxas has some good cheap cars, but a good fast reliable car is the team associated B-4

If your looking for cheap off road fun, take a look at the Traxxas electric Stampede (monster truck) or Rustler (stadium truck). Personally, I've got a Stampede and I can say that the thing is very durable. In stock form, it's not the fastest thing (nowhere near as fast as the nitros) but it's still fast enough for most backyard bashing. If you want more speed, just drop a hotter motor in it, just make sure the ESC can handle it. It also jumps very well.

So, I am choosing between the HPI Sprint or the Traxxas B-4? ... any others? and does anyone know where I can buy these off the net for a good price? Thanks.
