Tell him to save his money for a while and get what he wants instead of getting what you can afford. The 1/8 buggy is the best and cheapest way to learn this sport. I love the 1/10's myself but for learning there quite expensive [:'(] good advise there nitro.rc.racer

RE: im posting this 4 my friend
the TT ST-1 is under $300. i have one. its a bad @$$ truggy. its perfect for the basher/racer. it runs like a top and is durable as hell. the only thing that you might want to upgrade in the future if you wana really start racing is the radio and servos.
