Here's my track, what should I get?
Hi,
I'm just starting out in the hobby and I want to get a new vehicle. I'm trying to decide between:
1- A buggy (Hyper 7 PCR Pro or MP777- I know that they are not really in the same league as one is an old model and the other one is relatively new but I'm keeping the Hyper 7 as an option as I heard that its super tough and I'm thinking that because I'm new and that I'll probably crash, toughness is a very important thing for me),
2- A truggy (Hyper ST Pro again because I heard that its the toughest one out there) and
3- A REVO (It looks cool)
Those are the only options that I have, so there's no need to suggest other models. I'm only deciding between those 4 vehicles.
Also I might be using the chosen vehicle on tarmac occasionally.
Considering the layout of my track, which one would you recommend?
Thanks

Out of those you listed, my choice would be the Hyper 7. From what I've read in these threads about it, it appears to be the perfect option for a noob. And still plenty up-gradeable.

We don't have any class and we also don't have any hobby shops around. We have to order everything on the net. So class and parts support is not an issue.

If there's a regular group of guys that you run with, see what they're running. Sometimes it's good to run the same car. That way, if something breaks on yours and you don't have the part, somebody else will. Especially since you have no local parts support.
Otherwise, pick whichever you prefer. Keep in mind that the Revo is MUCH more difficult to work on than a buggy or truggy and are generally less reliable because they have more complicated drivetrain.

The best advice would be to do a ton of research, figure out what YOU like best and what fits your budget, make your decision from there, because if you get something everyone else tells you to get and your not happy, then what do you do??? Hope this helps.
