Getting back into RC's
Hello, I am 29 and i had a T-maxx when they first came out and then i sold it because my friends were too cheap to get one..( kinda boring running them by yourself...)
Anyway now my cousin and his sons now have them so i am trying to decide what i want to get for around 325.00 to 350.00 i would really like to get a used buggy or a used revo either one it must come with everything... I will be keeping a eye on the classifieds for sure. Well hope to be a long time member here because it looks like you have one heck of a membership and alot of great info on RC's.
Thank you.
Eric.

You could definately keep an eye out on the classifieds but if you trust the Bay then I would look around on there too. You never know when you'll stumble upon a good deal that suits your needs. If you're wiling to buy from eBay you'll be in good shape. Good luck and yes these forums do offer loads of info!

RE: Getting back into RC's
Here is some good advise that you may want to consider.
You said racing by yourself is boring. Amen.
Just in case your left alone again with noone to race in the future.
You may want to consider getting something as small as you can so you can always pack it easily into a suit case and fly to a great track.
Monster trucks are so popular but I just wanted to give you another way to look at things.
