My personal advise with these assumptions 1- you want to race and you want to bash 2- $$ is an object
Find a Jato that needs an engine put in a .15 maybe an .18 but not a 3.3. this will make it FAR more easy to drive/control. Since its 2wd you will learn throttle control to step up. Then save $$ for an 1/8 scale race level buggy or truggy. MOST outdoor tracks these days are not 1/10 friendly due to poor maintenance and 1/8 scale jump designs. Gas truck racing is dying in some areas and dead in most unfortunately, I was just forced to make the move to 1/8 due to no more GT to run with. If you have cash ready there are many good deals on used race 1/8. Check with local track and find out what they are runnin cuz it will easier to setup if someone knows what to do.
