Just getting back into the hobby... Need advice on a good 1/10 electric ROAR legal asphalt touring car. I have a good JRPROPO Alpina PCM Radio (I'm sure everything will work) I guess I'll need a Car, Motor, ESC, and Body... Dunno if I should get an HPI, Assoc, Losi, or other car. Need something affordable, begginer - intermed. level, wide availability in parts (Live in Alberta Canada - Problems finding parts for my Schumacher Nitro 10 many years back)
Anyway, any advice will be apreciated. Thanks in advance. :p :) :p

Well i'd say go with the HPI Sport 2... why? i have one and it's cool... it has plenty of hop-up options... btw, the kits i got is the Honda Civic SI... killer sedan there :D and if you are on a budget... get a trinity speed gems motor... novak fusion esc or lrp... either one is great :cool:

The most popular sedans in my area right now are the Yokomo and Associated. HPI just came out with their Pro 3, and Losi is expected to be shipping their new sedan. If possible, I'd hold out for a month or so and see how these two pan out. Since they're the latest technologies, they could put you ahead of the game! ;)
