I started out with a RTR B4.1. I had to change the tyres straight away to suit our track and got a bigger pinion but as I had no other RC equipment it got me racing.
Now I seem to have quite a lot and if I was to buy another car to use this coming season I would buy the kit version and use the electrics I currently have.
My B4.1 is still going and will be used this season but it has a different controller, ESC and motor and all the ball stud caps will be replaced with fresh plus the shocks have been worked over a little. It also has upgraded alloy parts were plastic have broken and even the chassis which cracked has been replaced.
After one years racing only the body and a few minor bits are all that's left! Perhaps I should have bought the Factory Team but at the time I could only afford the RTR and I wanted to go racing.
