[Artemus456]

So Im Looking for a RC Car right now and from what ive read from these threads is id be best going electric for my first car so im looking, can anybody help me out and tell me some good RC Car sites or possibly cars I should consider buying.

[aN4rK1]

Yes you should go electric for sure, whats ur budget, id say go for a RTR (ready to run) kit to begin with

[Artemus456]

well budget im not to worried about im 18 im working and have only a car payment which less than half of my check covers so i mean im willing to pay but i dont want to go overboard just because so i will say 300 at most im willing to pay at the moment.....

http://www.hobbytron.net/HPI-Sprint-Porsche-911.html right now this is what i was looking at what do you think.....??

[aN4rK1]

Ah yes the sprint, cant go wrong with that one, but that site seems a little pricey to me, this is also an awesome starter kit:http://www.hobbypeople.net/gallery/315098.asp

[aN4rK1]

Nvm that a decent price lol, i just check'd other sites

[Artemus456]

One more ques. what speeds will I hit with this car (Ill probably buy the Sprint).....

[aN4rK1]

Yea, i was gonna say go with sprint since u have decent budget, ummmm id say maybe 20 - 25ish mph

[aN4rK1]

Np for off topic, but not exactly sure what size it is but i think its .15 cuz CEN Says this: "CEN Racing NX-15 Big Block "Lighting" engine!
Big Block 2.5" And 73.4 Mph is just under 120 kmph its like 118 or so. and yes its 2spd, Cen says they are gonna release a 3spd tranny soon, with it i should be able to hit 90+ MPH, hehe cant wait

[shi shi bog]

damn man thats one fast car! did u buy it like that?
i have a kyosho pure ten i bought a .15 engine,2spd,exhaust still very slow my shity engine cant go full throttle for some reason so i havent hit two speed sucks

my friend has an old kyosho with 2spd its ok only hits about 80kmph so far

well hope the three speed comes out dude good luck
