RE: looking at on-road
HPI RS4 evo RTR or HPI RS418ss or Kyosho FW-05 ready to run are just what you want: 1)Cheap 2)Reliable 3)Easy to run 4)Fast (especialy the 18ss RS4 is VERY VERY fast for beginers...as my friend HPIapollo sais be sure tere's enough space to break when wearing stock tyres...
)

Kyosho FW-05 RTR: http://www.kyosho.co.jp/web/products...s/fw05t-e.html
I personaly have the 18ss RS4 using the kyosho ferrari body.And I honestly like my combination.I also own a Kyosho v-one-s RRR but the car is ONLY for the track...it's a pitty to scratch the chasis using parking lots...it is not a Beginner car (Professional) and it costs much. That's the reason why I now play only with my 18ss and all of my threads are about it.Although vone-s RRR is the best on road nitro car at this moment (1/10) i'm thinking about selling it.The reason is that i have no time for events. So what i'm trying to say is that buying a top beginner's car (or intermediate skill car like 18ss is) is the best choise: Easy to built and run and guaranteed fun forever! And with the right tuning can easily beat much more expensive cars...
