Brushless or Nitro??? They are both fun..the twister will come with 2.4 ghz radio and shockwave will have am. The twister will be faster. The shockwave will have aluminum chassis. Shockwave will be all wheel drive twister 2wd. Both are sweet, but for this choice I would go twister. This answers what you asked....now I will throw in tornado only because it is the same chassis as shockwave but with 2 speed tranny and .18 motor. Couple other mods but now I would pick tornado its only about $40 more and well worth the $$$. Good luck!

okay thanks!!! i have wanted a nitro for as long as i could imagine but never got the guts to try it again until now. my last nitro experience was when i thought it was a toy rc car not a hobby car.

Yes it is. The biggest repairs that will likely happen are dog bones and wing or wing mounts. I have been lucky with aluminum bulk heads in all major crashes just being able to bend back but all good things will come to an end soon few more and I'm sure the bulk heads will need replaced. I will down load track pics later from today! You just need to becareful on starts because the pull starter can cross the throttle link if pulled at akward angles. Easy to tune and with Redcats support videos you can learn all you need to get going...

Dude, you just keep going back and forth. Can you really not make up your mind or do you just find it entertaining to ask us countless questions about nitro's and then say "I'm getting the electric"? I have a dozen messages from you in my inbox where you asked me all kinds of questions about getting a nitro and I know this isn't your only thread about... which the other thread ended in you saying that you were sticking with electric as well.
