Totally new newbie would like some advice please

[mrbox]

Hi everyone my names mike i'm looking t get into rc racing and your club is by far and away the closest to me and i have a couple of questions before purchasing anything.

I quite like the idea of a 2wd buggy but is there different classes depending on motor/batteries ie. Brushed/Brushless Lipo/Nimh.

Is a budget of £275 even feasable to get started? Even a complete second hand set up?
(i do have a etronics 2.4ghz transmitter and reciever from my old lunchbox, would i be able to save money by using this?)

And finally when is the next event on that i could come down to and have a nosey about?

Many thanks in advance
Mike
