get a losi 22 mate, bombproof
RTR for about £280? or go on for sale section on here,,,more likely to get a trusted deal than on ebay
when i was asking i was told:
losi 22
durango dex 210
schumacher cougar sv
associated b4.1 or centro
at beginner level my view its get what you want and get racing, as you get better you will want different things and learn more..
im going oswestry and southport next week if you want to jump in
