New to Nitro Cars

[ItalianM87]

Hello, I was wondering which nitro car should i buy? i have a .18TZ engine with the Spektrum DX2.0 radio.

I have a smartech car, but i don't feel like adding these nice items to it.

Which car kits should i buy? example: R40 (thats the only one im thinking about because my brother has it hehe) i know theres others, which one should i buy, i need really good one.

Buggys are always a good choice.

i like 1/10 IMO, but so far im looking at

Team Magic G4S RTR
or
Mugen MTX-4

[ItalianM87]

whats the differents between those twp and this

RDLogics Mongoose G4
HPI R40
and others kits

200$ price differents, they all look the same.

this is what confuses me, they all seem to have the same stuff.

The G4 is high quality, while the R40 is a bit less unless you get the Atsushi Hara edition... I would recommend the Kyosho FW-05 rr or the V-One RRR also as they are very good...

Stick with the Mugen. I say this because of the parts availbility. The R40 is a great set up. The Hara edition is the best one on the market. The regular R40 has seen its day at the track. I still have one but it is religated to HPI races only. The Mugen is a up to date chassis that is a proven racer. The OS 18 engine that you want to use, will work in either chassis. The spring choices with the Mugen will make set up better with that chassis combo.
Kyosho is a great chassis, but hard to get parts for. The G4 is the same thing.

Parts... depends where you are... here they only sell Kyosho...

WOW! over here Pennsylvania and the tri state area, Kyosho is very hard to find parts for; as well as team Magic. I agree, depends where you are.
