Elec. vs nitro, off-road vs. on?

[LRL17Bob]

This is mainly a price comparison thing here but any help would be great.

I want to know, first which is cheaper electric or nitro/gas? Including chargers or fuel plz

Second, which is cheaper, on-road (tc) or off-road buggy?

Personal opinions are cool too so feel free to comment about any of these things.

Thanks a bunch.
Third, which is cheaper, kit or RTR?

For more expensive: It depends on what level you are racing or playing at. If you are a diehard racer the electric will be way more than gas because of comm truers matched batteries and motors. For gas if you go all out in racing all you will need other than what you need just to run is a starter box. If you just plan to get a fun run car electric will be much cheaper because the only cost for gas would be a pull start engine other than a starter box and a different car. For starting in gas you could pay only $280 or so with an electric with the very basics about $200. Money for a TC would not be much different because both types of cars go through tires freqently if you race.
