What would you recommend or what do you have you might want to sell.
Also I have the pulse dhss 2.4 radio gear which kept cutting out on the day and it would seem to be the reciever does anyone know any other reciever that can be used with it?

The madrat will be competitive enough if a little more work is spent on set-up, I really think just investing all your money in electrics will add value/enjoyment to your racing.
ideas:
Speed Passion or LRP speedo, 120 - 150
Speed Passion Motor V3 or Orca - 55 - 75
Savox Servo 45 - 55
Sanwa or Ko Radio - second hand 100 - 150 inc 2.4 setup
Lipos?
Charger?
Many options, but I think dont spend too much on electrics or too little and do not buy second hand, unless you know who your buying from?
What I'm saying is, you can buy great combi motor and speedo set ups, but will not stand the test of time. Dont go buy £250 eg, GM speedos, as your never benefit from it and curse it when it goes wrong. Also bear in what the majority at the club are using, as totally strange equipment will only make things more isolated for you. Follow the majority is safe. I guess most will recommend Speed Passion.
Also,
I have a great condition Cat SX/SX2, with spares, £95, well worth it, but u have a car which can give you results at your ability at present, always invest in electrics first.
Hope this helps
