Are you racing 1/10 th scale? And is the class for 2wd or 4wd? Make sure of these things at your local track, some only run 2wd and only 1/10 scale or 1/8 scale. You do know that you bought a 1/10 th scale buggy right? And yes it is a good starter buggy you might want to change the stering servo. And later on you might want to put a roto start on it so you can get rid of the pull starter. Good luck and welcome to the hobby and enjoy.

If your track only runs 2 wheel drive they might let you get away with pulling your front drive shafts, some of the tracks here that run 2 wheel drive will allow you to pull your front wheel and front center drive shafts.
