RE: please help me choose a buggy for my 8 years old!
I am a huge nitro guy, but I just bought my 6 year old a Hyper10 SC. Electric is going to be easier for him, and I can turn down the power, so that a full throttle will only go 5 or 10 mph. I can turn it up as he learns. And a HUGE plus to this.... I can race it too. The ony thing I would do different, is let him be more of a part of painting the body. I am buying another body so that he can make it his own.
Here's a picture. my kid is going to make a purple body.
