hey dan.revo I see that you're fairly close to me out in murrieta. I'm in San bernardino...pretty much all 1/10th scale RCs will work with what you're looking for. I may be putting my TT-01 up for sale here very shortly. I've got a skyline body and the impreza rally body for it, neither one has awesome paint on it but they're in alright shape. The car is pretty clean, I only used it for maybe 5 hours total but since it was used for drift it's got the typical scratches here and there. It's a complete RTR kit so if you want to make it for show but still putt around you can. Let me know if you've got any interest in it, it's got some hopups and some carbon fiber stuff too for your show look

I think the best Starter car is the TC4

You can get Chassis for less then $100 bucks, and they are great cars. I drift mine everyday.

However, most of the cars out now are pretty good. Just do some research, and decide for yourself

One thing I like about the TC4 is the parts are readily available at my LHS, not to mention you can always get parts on ebay for cheap. Check to see what your LHS carries, I would say choose a decent car that they support and stock parts for.

Good luck, no matter what you'll get you will have fun!

Priced right, but I have heard that they are brittle. Unless you had purchased one do so correct me.

a grip of the guys i drift with run cyclones, i run a tc4 and i love the thing. The cyclone is an awesome car though, super balanced which calls for good switch backs and balanced cornering. Its a little pricey for the Cyclone, the Cyclone S is pretty cheap though

No prob...check your wallet (that's usually your gf or wife in most occasions lol) and let me know. I'll put all my parts together in the morning and take some pics for you if you're really interested and I'll make you a deal you can't beat

Most Cars are Brittle when you crash them..

The Cyclone S is a Great car, it handles better then the Sprint 2 (Hence why I have Ordered one) and I have Driven both the Surikarn and the Andymoore Editions and they were Brilliant.. so I am going to see how good the Cyclone S is..

Also Have an E10 on Order.. IF IT EVER GETS RELEASED!!!!!!
