Hi OP
I disgree with the comment about parts being hard to get hold of or are expensive.
as for the rtr I bought my son one in June and he's been racing it since. hes had some right smashes and broke nothing, I blew his esc up linking it to a motor that was to high turn for it but that was my fault and the rtr stock motor is plenty fast enough to get into it.
I bought a 2nd hand one for 75 off ebay with a tonne of parts and wheels, if you have a stick already that's great, grab a motor and esc and your away. I got a speed passion reventon R for 70 quid, so for the price of the rtr you could be up and running with a better set up... search youtube for stickygeko you'll see my lad racing and smashing lol. In the laSt final I raced 5 out of 7 cars in the c final were 210s, the v is better but you can make the v1 to a v2 with a few bits n bats.
In all its a great starter car and built really well. I'm a nob bur learning fast
