Tax time is coming soon, and provided I can sell off my Savage, and my 1:1 car doesn't cost me too much for repairs, I plan to buy a 1/5th scale.
These are currently the three I am looking at. (Unless somebody has a better suggestion) Questions below.
HPI Baja 5B SS 2.0 2014 1/5 Buggy Kit w/Clear Body (Fuelie 26S Gasoline Engine)

HPI 1/5 Baja 5B SS Kit w/Clear Body (26cc Gasoline Engine)

Redcat Racing Rampage DuneRunner 4x4 V3 1/5 Scale 4wd Buggy w/30cc Gas Engine & 2.4GHz Radio

I don't know how much difference there is between the two HPI 5Bs, other than maybe one is the older version, in which then I would be likely to take the 2014.
I don't need a Tx/Rx, so that's not a bother.
2wd vs 4wd on a 1/5th scale?
Redcat 1/5th scales any good? Aftermarket?
Servos, what would I need? Is there something specific that I would need? Larger than the average servo?
What grade gas to run? I run premium in my car, lawn mower, and weed eater.
Best oil to mix with the gas?
Any other info you can get me started on would be great, thanks!
