Okay guys, First time posting!

I had several R/Cs in my lifetime. Ofna 1/8truggy, T-Maxx 2.5, Hyper7, Savage21,25,SS, MGT, TeamLosi 1/10 2WD, Mugen MBX-5, Etc. Eletronics I had Mini T, MicroRS4, miniTLT-1, etc. I had all those when I was in the states. I sold them all on ebay. Now I moved back to Taiwan. Then I started going to this local track with shop combined. I bought a kyosho RRR evo with several engines, pipes, etc. I had lots of fun until the track shut down and no longer available. So I sold my kyosho couple months after. Now I'm missing my r/c fun!! Now there's no tracks nearby and other track sucks. What should I do???? Should I just forget how fun the 1/10 nitro was? I mean it costed me alot!!!! I picked up a mini z monster yesterday and I felt retarded after I got home and played with it. I think the small r/c can't satisfy me anymore. I was looking at BAJA. Since all the r/c I experienced are 1/8, 1/10, and 1/18. BAJA is brand new! 2 stroke engine and the size is so big! But also the price tag is so high! now the only r/c i have is a mini z monster.

What do you guys think? Try to find a reasonable on road track nearby? or save up for a BAJA?

p.s there's a very close LHS with a mini z track, I played a mini z and it felt like toy compare with 1/10 nitro. Or should I get invole with mini z???? it's cheap and no hassle.

Playing is for Barbie dolls and "house", racing and bashing is what we do here.

Go out and spend the money on an FG Monster and then bash until you're content. Then go out and get some Iwavers and race on a pool table if you need racing competition.

The Baja is a good choice. Handles great, good selection of hop up parts and virtually maintenance free operation. But be warned, if you drive it alot on pavement you will be replacing the rear tires weekly.

It's all about Choices.. Go with what you like the best.. Save up for the Baja..

A Baja would be amazing if you had the space to use it on, like forests close by or even large construction areas then you i would buy it, and compared to what you must have spent on 1/10 nitro its not that expensive, and you dont need any extra kit for it really either....

Does anyone ever just drive around and bash anymore? Everyone is seeming like they go to tracks and stuff. If i were you i would get a big monster truck and just mess around. A baja 5b would be perfect for that but you could also get a sweet monster truck for the same money.

Baja. No more nitro tuning issues or over heating.

how long has baja been out? I think few months later HPI will release a better version of BAJA. Just like Savage 21, 25, SS, X, XSS.
