Default What for $250 shipped

What should I get for 250 shipped rtr. I know it isnt alot but thats all I want to spend on it. I want the most wheel travel. I dont care if it is scale or meets the rules for crawling. I just want to be able to go over anything in that price. Also the bigger the better for me.

Thanks

Dude the Cliff Climber for 140 is not Ready To Run. So go with the AX10 or the Mini Crawler. Those look like good bets for starters.

An RTR Wheely King and the HPI crawler conversion kit for it could be a good start for you too.

I have a WK and out of the box it was ok but with a little work and money it was awesome. New tires and extend your front and rear links then it is crawl worthy. I will let you know about the Min Crawler when I get mine. I figure that I have a WK why not try something smaller.
