Default RE: Hello from a new user. Would like some help.
Malous - I see you're a new user but may I ask if you are new to RC. Most specifically do you have experience with Nitro cars?

The reason I ask is I've seen a ton of new comers try to get into RC with a Nitro car and get discouraged and frustrated due to the tuning, up keep, fuel costs etc that go along with owning and running a Nitro car.

If you have experience with Nitro then I would recommend the Nitro Firestorm or the Traxxas Nitro sport from the options you listed. If you are not familir with Nitro or don't have someone to help you then I strongly recommend you go electric. The E-Firestrom Flux or Rustler VXL are both great choices.

I'm not trying to talk you out of Nitro or start a Nitro vs Electric battle. I've just seen so many people buy Nitro;s as their first car and end up walking away due to frustration.
