what is a good nitro rc car to buy for a begginer?
im a begginer at driving rc cars and i would like to know which nitro rc car would be the best to get?
Conway is right, Traxxas is an outstanding brand! PLUS, the electronics are waterproof. So if you are running in the rain or have snow in the winter, your RC is protected. If you want a quality RC, you should stick with the brand of Traxxas, HPI, Associated, Tamiya, Losi or Kyosho. Stay away from Walmart and Radio Shack RCs. They are pretty much junk. The brands I mentioned are going to cost some money but are well worth it. One of my first RCs was the Traxxas T Maxx. It's a monster truck and will go anywhere. Check out www.towerhobbies.com and search each of the names I gave you. If you see something you like, do a YouTube search and watch some videos. This will give you an idea of how the RC runs before you buy it. Again, they are expensive but anything else is just junk and going to break. Hope this helps and enjoy the hobby!

Traxxas makes a pretty decent car for the money you pay for it. It's a great car, with easy controls, yet efficent enough to meet the needs of the operator. This would be first choice im my opinion.
