Mugen MBX and X-Ray 808 are very high quality RCs. But let me warn you, they are not cheap. Actually, this hobby is not cheap either. A decent mid-grade RC RTR will cost you about $400 to $500 just to buy.

Even if you buy one of the lesser grade RCs, you will still eventually spend hundres as you progress along into the hobby by upgrading and repairing parts. The RTR stuff usually have the lower grade components (like the engine are radio) and upgrading those is usually the first stp to hopping up any RC.

Mugen and Xray. The mass market brands do not compare at all.

I dont think he is looking at a 1/8 buggy. On his "?" thread he showed this 1/10 4wd nitro buggy from himoto. I would get an electric stadium truck like the E firestorm for a beginner.

Do you know how to tune an engine?

LOL.! So other mass market brands like Kyosho, Losi, Ofna ( Jammin ), do not compare to an Xray or Mugen.

Okay [sm=spinnyeyes.gif]

LOL dont think this question can be answered really
Everyone has there own experiences with different brands some good some not so good,my advice is go with a good brand with good part support and you cant go wrong.
You cant even judge best by whats winning races as drivers skill comes into play
