Hey guys. I have had several nitro vehicles, and I was thinking of giving electric a try now. I want something relatively cheap, since I still want to mainly race with nitro. I have been looking at the 4tec and the Street Sport... any suggestions?
Thanks a lot

If you want cheap, durable and loads of fun, go the Tamiya TL01 kits. The kits pretty much cover the whole spectrum, touring cars, buggy's and trucks.

I wouldnt get either of those. I've seen them both run and they do not work that well . I suggest the racer version of the TC3 which is $149 on tower. Or get an E-MAXX.

I agree that the TC3 is a safe bet because they are reliable and easy to maintain.
