I say this to alot of new guys based on my experience with this buggy, get a OFNA Hyper 7!!! you can get a Hyper 7 TQ for 300.00, and have a VERY solid buggy to learn with, that has a ton of available parts support, and with minor modification, can race with the best of em... very solid platform!!! it comes with the Hyper .21 3port turbo, which is a race legal engine, and a very well made engine too...
