I agree with Stu. My advice would be to go for either the Associated B4.1, Losi 22 or Durango DEX210. Forget about C4.1, Cougar or X6 for now (and I am saying this having run two of the last three). You will have enough to worry about without having to consider conversion kits and making bits from other kits fit each other.. leave that to when you have raced for a few years and have reached the limit of your initial talent.

All of these three models will be good to learn with, easy and cheap to repair and would win a club/regional/national/european or world meeting in the right hands.

Try to race at a club.. driving around BMX tracks is OK for a while but leads to the darkside and boredom. Racing around a track against other people with the same passion as you leads to great fun, great friendships and is a fantastic way of using weekends.
