Default RE: Looking to get Into Extreme Speed Planes

Thanks for replies. About the cars, I'll just say that a lot of planes will fit into a small car if you try hard enough, but big planes really reduce that amount, not to mention the high prices, since I have to stay with electric.

To clarify, what I really need is an entry-level extreme speed plane that is designed for electric or that can be converted to elec, that isn't too big, (I. E. cost saving)

-The field is normally dry grass, not all that soft, but it is useable, although we are adding a runway, so as long as the bottom of the plane has decent durability, I'd be fine either with landing gear or without.

-My experience so far is 1 year beyond trainer flying, although I'm told I'm a quick learner. Hopefully once my Super Sportster gets flying I'll have some more experience from here until April, which is the earliest possible opportunity to purchase, but I could hold off for a while if I'm having any trouble.
