Default what car to buy??

I have not yet bought an r/c car. I have never owned one but am looking at getting into the sport. I would like feed back on what to buy. Best car for the $ etc... I would like to race dirt track with jumps, that kind of thing. I also like the idea of nitro rather than electric. Can anyone make any suggestions.

Thanx.

check out the rc10gt plus rtr. the truck is fast, handles great, and takes alot of abbuse. The radio is somewhat of a lower quality so plan on getting a better one. other then that the gt plus rules.

Default rc 10 gt rtr.... thumbs up!!!!!!!!!1

I third that motion. It is fully upgradeable and is built rock solid. I have been airing mine out over these BMX jumps by my house. I have crashed a few times and nothing breaks. A tie rod end might pop off, but so far that is it. Also you can get parts at nearly any store because there are so many around. Just remember to break it in according to the instructions. Good luck and have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!
