R/C cars (Nitro)

[jrallan26]

My 2 sons and I are looking into getting r/c cars. Which model should I get? What models do you have?

I used to have numerous Team Associated RC10s so I am not a rookie, just been a long time ago....

Any advise is welcome...

Thanks...

Ive got a HPI Savage and its great. The only downside is that instead of having a bucket-type assembly, there are rather two side frames that hold everything together. When something breaks, you often need to take a lot apart to get to what you need to fix. http://www.hpiracing.com/products/en/867.html

If I were to buy another, Id get the Team Associated Monster GT, or the Losi monster truck.

The Savage is pretty awesome though. I have 2 friends with other cars which break quite a bit, I can jump mine all day and not break anything. Its only if I am going really fast and ram into something that something breaks.

Whats cool is that the parts are cheap to replace since HPI is international. The American made stuff is probably better but seems to cost more to buy.
