Help. Please. Now.
 
Hello ppl, I would really like to know what would be the best buy between hpi sprint 2 drift x e10 drift x hpi micro rs4 drift. All them RTR, with D-Box. (Maybe you could have seen, I wanna drift x] ). So, I also wanted to know if you can connect the Micro (or maybe even the others) to the computer to set things,just like mini-z. What`s better between e10 and sprint 2? The losi drift sedan (saw it on the site just now), is it good?Competitive with hpi? WHat about Yokomo? Great huh?

Now sum more things u would like to know...
I am Brazilian, so imagine you`re spending 2x your money instead of saying, oh cmon, its cheap. Brazilian money is.... not so good. Also, I would really like and RTR. Need to be an RTR, but it would be good to buy upgrades.

Ty for help

Since you want upgrades, buy whatever car has the most parts support near you.

No support near me. Ha! Cool? Ok only some, but lil expensive.... Only ins extreme cases think. Don`t want something to race or compete with others, just to buy one and maybe one frend too and play with it for lil fun.

HPI Sprint 2 : Awesome Belt Drive Drifter
HPI E10 : HPI's Version of the TT-01 with the Unique ability to be able to reconfigure the chassis for Drift or Race.. Unreliable..
HPI Micro : too small to really Enjoy.

Make sure you can get Belts for the Sprint 2 and go with it...

I own both the E10 and the Sprint 2 and prefer the Sprint 2 by far... the E10 just suffers from too many Drive train problems for me to be able to recommend it

I run a sprint 2 and it is an AWSOME car, just as magnat stated. It was my first car and is still the car i drive. HPI makes alot of upgrades for it, in fact, im still upgrading mine. RTR comes with a good motor and esc, the motor is a 17x2 motor. So it has torque and speed; perfect for drifting. Go with the Sprint 2, pretty sure you'll love it! ;)

I wouldn't suggest the sprint 2 just because of all the stuff you have to do to to keep it from eating the belts. Try looking at tamiya.

I got 11 months of Weekly Racing and Drifting from my Sprint 2's Rear Belt..

If You know how to take Care of your Car and dont be a fool with it, then they are awesome...

All you have to do is remember, it isnt a rally car so keep it off the Gravel and you do just fine...

If you want to Rally, Go a TL-01 or A TT-01
