also if you want to save money the hitec 645mg will be sufficent for racing at begginer level but as you get more competeive it will need to be uprgaded.

Cool, thanks for all the relpys, i am just going to do bashing....during the break in i just notices how bad the turning was, should i look for something on the car or is it that bad that you can barely turn the car while it is driving? I heard that the stocks were bad, but i didnt think they would be that bad....I also have a savage and an x-cellerator, and both turn way better than the ofna, is that normal? Thanks in adavance for the help, i am not a rokkie, but to buggies i am and i dotn want to pretend and really mess things up? Anything else i should get? My brakes seem really bad to, or do i just need to fix that myself?

I wouldn't touch a Hitec. At least save yourselve time and money and get the best to start with, Ko Propo, Airtronics or at least Futaba.
