Electric SCT ???

[Sodripper]

Afternoon all! I have a couple nitro trucks and I can't take it anymore!!! Not the nitro but the cold temps. I live in upstate New York and its just too cold to run them. I have found a few local tracks and I want to go electric so my son and I can play in the winter. It doesn't mater if it is a rtr or kit, depending on price to complete the kit. I'm looking for any advice on which model or brand to buy. I want it to be brushless and competitive at the track. Any Ideas??

I would keep with major brands like HPI, Losi, Traxxas and Associated. A good way to see what's competitive is to see what they're running at the tracks you mentioned and go from there. I personally prefer the kit as you can choose what electronics you put in it and they usually have a few upgraded parts included.

If your wanting to race Id look at Losi Ten-SCTE. That would be my first personal pick but associated, Durango, and Tekno RC, make good racers also. If you just want a good basher thats fine for some simple club racing you can also look at traxxas, proline, and HPI are really good too.

Sorry to be off topic but i bought my first nitro truck in Bohemia L.I. N.Y. in 1999, a Traxxas Rustler. Really great hobby stores up there.
