Getting back into racing
I would just like to know what would be a good stadium truck or buggy to get back into racing with.
Im not for sure if i want to race stadiums or buggys. Any help is appreciated.
Also i was looking to get into 1/18 racing any ideas for that too?

RE: Getting back into racing
Go to your local hobby shop and see which one they have parts for. Parts support will be important in racing, sucks being out of a race because you crashed in an earlier heat and you have to wait for parts to show up in the mail.
To add to the aboved list, for a stadium truck, I would say Hpi Firestorm too. Any of those 4 companies you'll do fine with providing your hobbby shop stocks parts.
EDIT: oh, I forgot to add, if your hobby shop isn't the same one as where you'll be racing don't let them talk you into a Traxxas Rustler as a racer. It would take alot to get one competitive with the others.
