Not a bad setup for a first car. Add a cheap lipo charger and one or two lipos and you're set for racing. The car is very decent and is raceable right out of the box. You might also want to invest in some ball bearings for the wheels and rear axles and you'd be good to go.

you'll be best off going to your local club to see what everyone else is using first before you spend your cash
