If this is your first buggy and you are new to the RC world, you might want to consider something quite durable, I think the kyosho inferno and Hyper are more of the race type buggies. The LX and MBX by Ofna are a little more on the beginner to intermediate class. Basically if you want to go and bash it Ofna's MBX class is quite durable and has a .25 big block "lots' of power"
the Kyosho is more on the higher scale with the Hyper's etc.

Good luck !
