In this hobby a grand is not much at all, especially when you have a family and mortgage payment and something breaks on your car and it kills you to have to wait for payday to get it back up and running

I wouldn't spend $10 on Nitro so $1000 is out of the question. If I had that kind of money to blow I would do the HPI T5 stadium truck or The Vorza.

Come to think of it, that would be a nice down payment on a new Align 700

Unfortunately you only have 1000 nitro dollars. Electrics can't be purchased with nitro dollars. You could however ask the OP what the exchange rate is when going from nitro dollars to electric dollars, and see if he'd be willing to convert it for you.

Are you joking?! How many people above the age of 5 do you know that find it acceptable to use the number 2, in place of to, too, two or da in place of the. These mistakes are so bad that you would have to intentionally make them. Hell, this type of spelling is just barely acceptable for text messaging. You might have a leg to stand on if you didn't make it so glaringly obvious. You're constantly surrounded by proper (or at least half way decent) english spelling when you surf this forum. Are you telling me that in the time that you've been on this forum you were not able to learn to use "the" instead of "da"? Also, almost every internet browser available has a built in spell checker, and if it doesn't I can guarantee you there's an easy to install, free addon that will add that feature. So you really can't use lack of spell checker as an excuse.

Who cares about grammar, this is a forum about rc!  Suppose to be fun and educating

1000$$ aint enough so also finding a big wad of money would be handy in getting a tricked out KYOSHO MP9.

i'd pay a machine shop to make the needed parts to convert my rb modded 528X to pull/roto start so i could put it in my flm savage. its kinda heavy and this engine rocks

I just hit the lottery, everyone gets a $1000!     <<<<<<<<<(right

xTHExSA1NTx

Acutally, I think I would take my align 450 to my hobby pro and tell him to hook it up!

Wow, a 1000 bucks to blow. Would be so much fun. Lets see. Has to be nitro...... Heck, im pretty cautious with how i spend my "play" money. Id do alot of researh first. Probably look into one of Losi monster trucks, a 1/8 buggy, or one of those nitro crouch (i spelled that wrong i know it) rockets. Could you imagine winning 100 mil on the lottery? Then the easier question for me would be: What rc stuff would you NOT buy.......

Foxy

Lets face it, with 1000 bucks you can get a top class car in any division you like. So the question becomes; what class interests you the most/is missing from your collection?

Things that immediately spring to mind... An Xray buggy, an Xray truggy, an Xray touring car. Sub the word Xray for Mugen and there's 3 more choices. For nitro with that budget, I don't think you need to look at any other brand than those 2.

serpent? they make some half way decent cars

but seriously... custom is the way to go.

cuhrron you can GET an 801XT for $225, shipped, from tamiya usa. before it was $199, shipped. i got one. it's the nicest rc i've ever bought. if you want, you can do it on the cheap, say, $100 for a dynamyte 24 on ebay if you can still find one, $100 or less for servos from hk (at least to get you going), a cheap integy pipe and tires (say $40, with the discount, believe it or not) and a receiver to match your radio, and you've got something very nice to knock around in. i know i do.... and you are out the door for less than $500! later you can get savox or hi tec or whichever servos you want, and an o.s. 25 or 28 or whatever, if you want "the best." but i don't know of a cooler kit for $225, i mean, what costs $225? a traxxas mighty mutt?

xTHExSA1NTx

like I said, 1000 bucks in the rc world just isnt enough to do anything with, but just enough to have a little bit of fun
