Greetings All!!! 
I'm a newbie to this forum and a relative newbie to this hobby. Me and a friend have been fiddling around with our recently purchased NIKKO Evolutions cars. We figured to enter this hobby it would be good to hone our driving skill on a car that's fairly fast and still not too expensive. So we settled for the NIKKO things.
Now after a long training we emerged good drivers[8D]
So now we're thinking: we need better wheels! So here's the ultimate question:
Which one???
We want a kit version so we can build them ourselves, we want a battery powered car. Because fuel-cars are a step too high on the ladder, and it also takes loads of preparation and maintenance for each run. Now the car we want should be fairly professional and fully tunable, we like working on the cars. The budget for each car is about 200 Euro's, which is about 235 dollars or something...
Please let me know what you think!!
Thanks,

As far as monster trucks go......I'm not sure if you can get an electric one in a kit but the RTR's are good too.

Well with you saying cars. I am going to take it you want on-road. I would go with the losi xxx-s or the team associated tc4. You won't be able to buy a kit for 235 after you add all of the electronics and stuff. I would say get a rtr and then upgrade later when you have more money.
