what to buy?!?
hey ya'll,
so i'm thinking about getting an on-road nitro car, more than likely a touring car. i'm looking for something that is fast (obviously!), has a good amount of upgrades, and is kinda popular so i don't have problems getting parts. i was looking into the TC3, 4-Tec, or RS4. i really don't know which of these to go with though. i read all about them in shootouts in RC Car Action and stuff and i'm still in the dark. well thats one part of my post. the other is cost. i'm not asking if anyone out there has any of this (i'll save that for the For Sale post). okay well i have all the electronics from my electric buggy, radio, servos, stuff like that. so i'm looking for a kit/engine thing i guess. i would prefer a kit that is totally unassembled, because i use the assembly process as a way to learn the car for field tear down, so no ARR or RTR stuff like that. so basically that's all. please help me out if you know even the littlest detail here! thanks a lot!

I think you can still get the Pro 4tec for about 200$ NIB on ebay, very very niec handling car. Not to sure about the handling of the original 4tec, but my pro was very reliable.
