I have made the big decision, for months I have been going back and forth nitro or electric. I have decided on electric, with my schedule being so bizzy with being a teacher and a coach and so I dont have time to tinker with a nitro. I do want to start maybe doing on road races. Out of these two which one would be better. I figure I would keep it stock for a while and learn to drive it in front of my house and at the local track. So when I get better and start to make it faster my skills will match the machine.Thanks D

I know it's not on your list, but I'd get Hot Bodies Cyclone.  It is a much newer chassis then either you have listed.

that one is real cool but the price is a little high. How about the kyosho tf-5

ya look at the rtr version of the hb cyclone and it is in my price range> and it does look cool.

Also look at the TA-05. Here is a link for a sale on the kyosho http://www.rocousa.com/detail.asp?pr...=KYOSHO_30823B I read an article on the kyosho on Car Action and looked pretty good. Also you need to take into consideration part availabilty in your LHS..

I like the kyosho but I heard that parts are hard to come by and they discontinue there cars fast. Is that true? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks D

If you tell us what your budget is it would be a lot easier to help you.

Do you want an RTR?  Or a kit?

yea im pretty sure its basically hpi. what about looking into a tb-02 or tb-03? readily available parts and tonns of hop-ups. you can get a kit for about a 100 dollars with some searching. if you are new to electric, a kit can help you understand the car better. i got a rtr and then a kit, and the kit was very useful as far as knowledge.

I have decide to get the HB cyclone S RTR. it has everything need to start with, my next one will be a kit, either hpi cup racer or the f10 f1 car. thanks guys for your help
