what would u guys suggest for some one who just got into nitro r/c cars a hpi firestorm rtr or a nitro evader st rtr or a tower hobbies st-15

oh and the truck would not be used for racing just driving around my drive way and at the track jumping

My Vote is Firestorm.

y do u say firestorm?

I dont have any personal experience with it...but i read around and it sounds like a good truck, durable, and pretty quick.
im soon gonna own one of these. the videos pretty much convinced me.

but for what im gonna use it for would it really be that good for the price

Yeah it should be, you should check [link]http://www.youtube.com[/link] for some videos. they got some jumping action on there.

The XTM Nitro X-Cellerator is great also

Between those three the firestorm will probably be the best. I have heard some bad things about the other two.

firestorm the wholeway

FIRESTORM, easy to work on, doesn't break, can take a beeeeeeating, and itches for more...

Why do you choose these cars? There are better cars in the category you listed, its just a matter of how much you are willing to spend.

My suggestion is go to your LHS and ask them what manufacturer they carry the most parts for and if they have parts for the HPI or any of the cars your mention then go for that.. Its almost inevitable that you're going to break something up in your learning process and you wouldn't want a longer turn around just to replace a broken part.

Most of these cars have the same design that you almost can't tell the diff without the body cover. Reliability/Durability wise is I think subjective, there are ppl who swears that HPI is better than Traxxas and vise versa but its really how you abuse the car that defi its longevity. Maintenance and common sense plays a major part too.. Good luck which ever you decide.

PS. Get the GT2.

rc10gt2 or firestorm

Go ahead and get the firestorm, it keeps a great tune. But keep in mind it is a new truck and your lhs might not have the parts right away, I know once I bought mine they got every part they could get their hands on from hpi.

yeah i say go for the firestorm it is really easy to work on but as sapper said parts are hard to get because it is a new truck i have been waiting 3 weeks for one part
