Status: offline 		What 1/18 scale offroad car should i get to go with it . Im trying to sell/trade my brushless boat(in the classifieds, check out my ad if your interested). If i succed in selling. I would like to get a 1/18th scale off road car. I already had a mini-t, and i have a budget of around $300. I would preffer brushless. Im thinking an RC18t Factory Team edition but i want to know what else i should consider.

Status: offline 		i think the AE rc18t FT kit is GREAT
i dont know where to get it cheapest but is you buy it from thetoyz and its your first order form them you get 10% off.. not sure if it applies for the FT kit..
i really wouldnt consider any other 1/18 besides the vendetta or xray but both are hard to come by parts and they can be exspensive

Status: offline 		Alright. Looks like amain hobbies is the cheapest(by $2 lol). Ill prolly order off tower. What would you recommend for brushless. I wanna do some racing, so i was thinking lower kv. But im not sure whether to get the 4200kv or 5600

Status: offline 		well if you kinda have a budget chekc out the hobbywing combo. i heard they were pretty decent
otherwise i say get the sidewinder 5400.
will have a nice amount of torque and you can ear it to make it fast.


also reccomanded upgrade for racing

dr draglink
aluminum steering (3racing or thetoyz is my preference)
foams for indoor carpet tracks
cvd's for front
mip super diff with carbide balls for the rear..

not sure how much racing or how much you will be into it but thelst can go on..
