Alright im new at rc besides the fact that i had a tyco electric thing couple of years back. I wanna know if anyone knows a good cheap on-road Nitro car. I live in NYC so theres not alot of backyard bashing over here although i am buying a duratrax nitro evader bx for fun around some parks. I just wanna know if there are any good cheap 1/10 on-road nitro cars that go fast lets say 50+ and are cheaper then $300.
Thanks if anyone replies.

Do you have any gear? Radio, servo, that kind of thing? I'm not sure about on road cars but ofna offers an 1/8 scale buggy rtr for less than 300 I think. look at these.

I dont really have anything to deal with rc cars i really just want a good on-road nitro car. I have no radios, servos, pretty much nothing to deal with rc cars but i do have a evader bx comming to me from that same web site. I was looking at the page you sent me and I just wanna know if this car is good... http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXGUY0&P=0

Nobody sells anything around me in that nature only store i know is about 2 miles away from where i live [:@]. I just want a simple car with everything included in it i dont wanna spend like 100 bucks on a controller and 300 on a car. im cheap lol.

you may be able to get a nitro car in an RTR setup for around $300, but you will spend another $100 or more in support equipment. i'm taling about a starterbox, glow warmer, pit bottle, hand tools, etc. be prepared to spend a lot of $$$. this hobby ain't cheap. parts break all the time, and you will put another $1000 into your car before you know it. don't get me wrong though, its fun. just be prepared for the expense.
