Default RE: First Kit Car

assuming that's for everything, your choices are a bit limited. where would you be running it? most of them on the market these days seem to be exposed belt drive which dont like much of anything touching them. there is the tamiya xv01 which is one of the few purpose built rally cars on the market. then there is the associated tc4 club racer which is actually a pre-built chassis without wheels, tires, body (i think) and electronics. cant think of many other options that can be built for your budget but then again i'm not well versed in onroad cars. if you plan to race and you can double the budget, you'd be wise to check serpent, xray, crc and schumacher. looking into it, i found the schumacher mi1 for $165 US at amain http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ouring-Car-Kit
