ORIGINAL: duck899

The track is a dirt track with jumps and all that so what brand and model do you think would be the best?
thunder tiger phoenix XT brushless.
$200 rtr.
Add a 2s lipo/lipo charger for $100 on hobbypartz.com
Install a larger pinion gear and get 35 or more mph.
The phoenix is a rebranded team associated T3.

Or get a ECX torment ($190 rtr) and install a cheap brushless system ($90) and sell the stock battery ($20) and buy a 2s lipo/charger.
