How much you gonna spend.......... kit or rtr. Once that information is given its pretty easy to suggest a buggy.

bear in mind that the xtm 24.7 is not race legal but it is very fast.

I would recommened a Sportwerks Mayhem, but for race legal you might need a .21 engine, so you can get the ARR or something.. otherwise look at the Hyper 7 RTR or something..

[link=http://www.ofna.com/h7rtr.html]Ofna Hyper 7 RTR[/link] I think thats the normal hyper 7 rtr which is race legal. Although you may want to buy a stronger steering servo.

24.7 is a awsome motor. i have the x-terminator its probably the best starter out there yet probably the fastest. normal buggys have a .21 engine but this one have a 24.7 2.6hp engine. its plenty power for a buggy. it goes 45mph easy. at hobbypeople.net its 300 on sale just wait for a sale in a month or two. right now its 350 but did i mention there is a kit on hobbypeople for a 2 speed for a buggy thats 59mph. you need a x-t if you dont you will regret it and alot of people i know see mine and wish they would have got it. the only 2 things bad about it is that the throttle servo went out when i was driving in the rain and on pavement the front tires are gone. if you buy it from hobbypeople you will get upgrades already because you bought from them. upgraded steering servo, aluminum shock towers, radio tray, brake mount, and more forgot most of it. ill have to look at it. there is also these weird looking things at the back that are there for extra stiffness. they work awsome. hope this helped and wish u get x-terminator. good luck.
