because of the discontinuation of the normal SS kit, i MAY go buy a Savage 25 RTR...but that's the only RTR I'd consider at the moment.
the MT 18SS is a MUCH MUCH MUCH better rig, gutsy engine, tough drivetrain, and good tires outta the box...
if you want a cheap nitro kit, well...
yer just about outta luck. but if you want a cheap kit, get a tamiya electric.
