This isnt a bad car. It should be pretty simple for someone new to the world of RC. And YES it does come with a Transmitter (remote control). The batterys for the transimtter (8 batterys) and maybe a 7.2V battery ( something like a 7.2v 3000mah NiMH Battery Pack)

RC car drifting is fun but it will take some practice before you get the hang of it

hope this helps but keep asking question if you still have them

not too many other companies make drift kits for under $250, Yokomo makes drift kits the MIGHT be better but ive never driven them (or hpi's for that matter). But yokomo's kits are a bit more costly and most hobbystores (all) sell hpi parts but not as much yokomo.

Teamlosi has just came out with a drift kit but thats fairly new so i cant really say much on that. I wouldnt look more for getting the VERY best drift kit on the market because you will also need to buy other things to get your car running. Dont worry about what is the best kit out there and just focus more on having fun.

You can do a bit of research on other kits to see if anything else is to your likeing, Best of luck
