Get yourself a paypal account makes buying and selling so much easier.
Start with a 8.5! I run a 7.5 in my Cat and it's plenty quick enough. Over a race distance I'm up with the people running 5.5 motors. DO NOT and I'll say it again DO NOT run anything lower than a 8.5, we have a chap at our club who runs a hot motor in his B4 and 3 months on he still can't drive.
Get your XXX4 and STICK with it. I think a lot of people don't want to see another question on what should I buy. You've made your choice, get it built, set-up and race it - END OF!
Do not have any crazy ideas such as "does a B4 slipper fit". Stick with the car as it's mean't to be built!
Racing isn't about the latest kit, (I run a 15 year old XX) it's about having fun and getting competitive. All of which takes TIME. Once I'm more competitive I'm looking forward to going other clubs.
Remember if you ask for someone's advice take it by all means, but don't critcise the advice.
