RE: Help for a beginner
 

A lot depends on what you want do with it. You noted "racing" so do you plan to actually go to a track and race? Or do you plan to just have fun with it driving it on the street, off-road, wherever? If you want something that you can just go anywhere and drive it, jump hills and such (they call that "bashing":) then I would suggst the HPI Bullet MT. I don't own any. of the cars you mentioned, but out of those that is my suggestion, simply because HPI is known for their exteme durability and I've heard posiive things about the Bullet MT.

With that, may I suggest one more car? The Hyper 7 buggy. You can get it for under $300. That would be my recommendation for anyone new to "the hobby" that wants to get into nitro. http://www.nitrohouse.com/product.as...FSWoPAodd3QAeg

RE: Help for a beginner
 

While I havent owned one everyone that does seems to love and recommend the hyper 7 as john said.

RE: Help for a beginner
 

Personally, I'd go with the 835B or bullet mt.

All of the cars on your list are made in Taiwan or china. The only company I know that still makes their cars in USA is RJ Speed; Associated makes a few of their parts here(bought a MGT servo saver that was).

RE: Help for a beginner
 

Love my Hyper 7's. Reliable, tough, fast enough add speed with gearing, stock motor is a beast torque wise, 17 tooth clutch bell gives more use of the rpms. Go Ravens!! I'm bleedin Purple AHHHHHHH!

RE: Help for a beginner
 

Out of your choices, Im all in for the T-Maxx 2.5! I just got one for Christmas and I'm impressed on every level! The quality and support is tough to beat!! With traxxas, you can pretty much find all the parts you'll need at a local hobby shop, if something is to break.

Either one you pick I wish you the best and have fun!<br type="_moz" />
