I would suggest an XTM X-Terminator Deluexe. Its 449$ RTR and it comes with all the hop-ups already on it! YOu could also get the standar X-Terminator which doesn't have all the hop-ups and it costs 300-349$ around in there.

Money Is No Object And For Use Will B Lightly Bashing On A Track And Then Move To Racing When The Hobby Shop Finishes The Track.

If money is no object than I suggest either a Kyosho MP777 or a Kanai 3, or an X-Ray XB8. Keep in mind these come with no Engine, radio, header/tuned pipe, or tires.

be carefull when you say money is no object. imbroken and i just built 2 high end buggies. he listed his total at just under 1400 for a MBX-5 Prospec and he already owned a radio. and my total came in around 1500 for an XB8.

I just made my first purchase towards my high end buggy $320 for an RB WS7-2, I am still trying to find the buggy kit. If money is no object to you then get the best available Prospec, MP777 Sp-1, XB8 any one of them would be a good choice.

Hey IMBROKEN what did you think of the Hyper when you ran it? Thinking of getting one for my son. I have a K3 and my son has a 8 year old hopped up Ultra Worlds Gt. I am interested in the Hyper.

if money is no object check out kyosho and mugen... but as already said those can easily run all built around $1400-1500.

otherwise look at the x-terminator and the ofna hyper buggies...both nice
