I agree 100% on the TF5 -
cheap
good quality parts - never broke anything on my one and I use that as my 'thrash' car when i don't wanna wreck my other cars.
very easy to upgrade

I race both the Cyclone S and the XXX-S. Both are great cars.

The Cyclone is smoother driving and more consistent for me, but the XXX-S is bomb proof and requires less maintenance (diff rebuilding, etc.) and parts are cheap and plentiful.
