Cool, I'll get on that facebook group..
David - Just been looking up the Team C Tm 2v2, I've realized that I'm clueless with regards to what's what in the world of 1/10th 2wd buggies at the mo! It looks like a nice car and people seem to rate it, one thing I have read from a few sources is that it's designed for high bite surfaces, one site described it as a 'carpet monster'. This sounds perfect for the indoor track, I'm wondering if it would also be a good choice to run in the summer as well though? I was hoping to be able to run the same car indoors and out with just a few changes to suspension, tyres etc.
I'm also gonna have to research how much I'll be looking at for electrics. I do still have a cheap 2.4 gig radio hanging around (Tx and Rx) but I imagine the main cost is gonna be the ESC/ motor combo, batteries and a charger. I'm thinking that I may end up well over budget if I spend £160 on a roller before I've even thought about something to power it - it is always tempting to spend a bit more to get something nice but I don't wanna run out of money before I've got a complete set up! - Basically it may end up being outta my price range but you never know, my budget may change so if it's not too much trouble to send some pics I'd still be interested in having a look.
Some other cars I've seen:
Team Associated B4
Losi 22
Team Durango DEX210
Serpent Spyder SRX-2 MM
Would any of these cars be suitable? The Durango dex210 and the Associated B4 seem to crop up quite often and fairly cheap on ebay..
