It's all daunting!. Look at some of the ready to run kits 'RTR' we use the Associated B4, everything you need plus battery and charger.

Not a bad suggestion and fully upgradable.

To what level do you want to race at, TORCH, regional and elsewhere?

I rec could get a 2nd hand B4 for £60, my first one cost me that and did me well. Wish I still had it!

I'll ask around from members for what's up for sale.

I would strongly suggest getting good second hand kit rather that a new RTR. I started with a zx5 RTR and it was a long and expensive upgrade road to get it as fast as i wanted in the end.

I would keep it simple to start with, but get goodish kit.

If you do go RTR then the b4 is probably one of the better ones
