Default what plane to get?

I'm looking for a "scale-like" pylon racer. I normally shop with Tower Hobbies, but from what I've seen, all they carry is the Little Toni and Cosmic Wind. I've heard these are not very aerodynamic, and as far as I'm concerned, too common. Can you suggest some other alternatives and where to get them? I'm looking to spend up to $500 on an arf/kit, not including engine, etc.

This is a little under your budget, but mighty cool looking. I think I will get one after my next crash, cant wait.

I think a tower hobbies .75 would really make this thing scoot.

The little Midget Mustang looks an awful lot like the World Models Midget Mustang. The instructions are pretty much identical, except that the wings maker instrucitons have some nice color pictures added. If it is anywhere near the quality of other world models planes I have owned and at $30.00 less, it's worth every penny. I would be very interested in knowing how it flies....
