Hello this is my fist post on the forums, but I been reading for a while. I have a classic t-maxx totally upgraded( I had it since it came out) my son since he was a baby always wanted to play with it. now he's going to turn 8 years old. and he always ask me to let him drive the truck.
so for the past month I let him take the wheels. at first I show him how to have throttle control.
(he's getting better at it)
So the question is... his b-day is coming up and I want to buy him his own r/c. (he like's buggies) something not to expensive.
my LHS has a red cat 1/10 "shockwave" for $140.00( wich is not bad for his first r/c)
but I also found on-line a 1/10 "hyperspeed exceed" .16 engine w/ 2.4 radio for $ 119.00. and 1/8 "mad fire escced" .21 engine full bearing for $180.00.
can you guys guide me on which of 3 will be a good bang for the buck!



p.s here is mi T-maxx
