Hi Everyone I need help, I’ve been challenged to participate in a race with a 1/10th scale Nitro RC on an off-road track. I am completely new to this and I am starting from scratch. My Budget is a maximum of $200 set by the race organizer. The race is several months out so I’ve got time to learn what I need to learn. I’ve already been reading through all the noob guides on this site. What I need is recommendations on what I should buy. I like the Idea of buying a RTR though I’ve seen nothing but bad things said about those. But I’m not afraid of assembling one, just need clear instructions. What I’m looking for most is a durable vehicle that will survive almost anything I can throw at it. If they made a 1/10th RC nitro tank made by Toyota I would get that. Preferably I would like to spend less than the max but not at the expense of getting something that will break easily. So guys any advice? What brand, models, parts, and stores do you recommend? What would you build with this budget for this?
