Default New to Sedans

Im interested in posibly getting a sedan. Maybe a TC4 or Hotbodies Cyclone. Im not wanting to spend a ton. im Just wanting to have something to play with when im not racing. I normally race electric off road. Is Drifting fun compared to off road? Is it hard to learn to drift?

When choosing a car, go with the brand that has the best part support in you area. But from your choices, go with the Cyclone. It's a very good drifter that is well balanced and has lots of option parts.

I wouldn't say drifting is hard but I wouldn't say it's easy. It does have a learning curve that can be steep if you have a bad choice of tire/surface/chassis/ etc. But if you want to get good at it, find an on road track and drift on it. Drifting on a track will make you drive better then free style driving in a empty parking lot.

off road is the beginning of all the excitement, entry level racer can go anywhere do anything with a truck, on road takes skill and much practice and is as much fun as well

Tower has a Cyclone S kit for 160.(not in stock at the moment) I'm not sure if that is the cheapest price, but in my opinion, that is a good price for a kit like the Cyclone.

I like the TA-05 as well, similar to the other two.
