Well it tells you what you need right there, remote + servo, batts. , charger and and esc, get all that stuff and stick it in there, minus the charger haha. But i would recommend a RTR (or ready to run) car for a beginner.

They are battery packs like this
http://www.rcplanet.com/Trinity_Refe...p/tri20216.htm
And yes you should go with a rtr like this
http://www.rcplanet.com/HPI_RTR_Spri...Z_p/hpi761.htm
You will need paint, a battery, and a battry charger
http://www.rcplanet.com/SearchResults.asp you can go to the bodies and paint section for answers there.

and if you want to go faster then all you need do is put in a lower turn motor like one of these
http://www.rcplanet.com/12_14_Turn_Motors_s/859.htm
And if you dont want to drift any more all you need to do is change out the wheels and tires
http://www.rcplanet.com/Venom_26MM_S...vnr1045mc1.htm
you will need to buy two of the pre mounted rims and tires

RE: help with getting my car on the way need big help
Well, the first thing i'd do is get the kit you want. I'd recommend an RTR cuz that kit will have the majority of the stuff you need, thus more pricey. I'd work on getting the kit First before worrying about the motor, tires, or anything else. After you get everything you need, Charge the batteries and let er' rip!! After running the car you'll be able to tell if you want more speed/torque.
For Drifting usually you aren't going as fast as regular bashing around because the wheels are spinning loosing traction. Some people to save money, use ABC tires which are really just circular piping(fit to rim size) to get the Drifting affect. Or buy some drift tires, whatever money allows.
For drifting though with rubber tires, you'll usually need a Bit more Torque(To break the car Free into a slide).
Drifting and Racing though Unless its a drifting Race, are two separate Races all together. For Drifting your Loosing traction, while Racing(Street/track Racing) You'll want AS MUCH traction as possible. It's all kind of Trial and error figuring out the best setup for what you want to do.
Pick up, or save up for an RTR, Buy a couple diffrent sets of tires and test em out. We really cant tell you what to get, it's all up to you, all we can do is give you our Suggestions. You'll get it though, Just Pick up an RTR, and we'll help you Get it where you want.
