Which Large Scale to get next.
Well I've been thinking of what to get next.
I've got a MCD Stadium Truck by Largescalerc, check it out here http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_7950566/tm.htm.
I'm looking at either HPI Baja, FG Baja or FG Marder, Duratrax FireHammer maybe a King Motors Baja, just don’t know what to get.
I'm looking at going down the less expensive option as the MCD was a small fortune.
Which would be the best option for money.??
Where is the best place to pick one of the about up cheap.??

I have been thinking and reading about these large scale cars for almost a year now and I have also decided to go with the SS .
Just can't beat the car with the price and after market support.
The fact that parts are easy to get also and the mods are endless.

The SS is a great vehicle. The 5t will also soon be available. When it comes to options, it's definitely a leader in the SS buggy form. The 2wd is more challenging to drive, which is a nice addition with an MCD already.

Definately the 5b,I love my SS and i'm so glad I went this route for my first brand new largescale.The Redcat Rampage or Smartech Titan will be my next model though but not fr a whie as i'm loving the 2wd rear end driftyness of the Baja SS....

Fg Baja all the way, great out the box, handles awesome and many more add ons available than an hpi baja...no hydro brakes, LSD, 2 speed etc for the hpi. I've run with a couple of hpi's and smoked em...honest, I'm not saying that hpi ss is not a nice car, it is! but FG has more to offer.
