If your not going to buy an MS I would suggest you buy an regular 415 and upgrade with LW and Worlds kit later on

I would only consider cars that your local tracks support, if a lot of guys have the 415 and your track has parts, then get it (if you can afford it). X-Ray FK is awsome, Corally RDX looks good, Schumacher MI2 looks sweet, HPI Pro 4, AE TC4 are all good and competitive.
The parts support thing in my mind is very important because you don't win races with a broken car.

The first thing you should have told us is what kind of racing are you going to be doing? Carpet, ashpalt, rubber, foam, stock, modified...give us some help. Believe it or not, but some cars are better than others in certain situations. For instance: DO NOT buy the MS if you plan on running foam tires on carpet.
Give us some help so we can help you!

For ashpalt racing, you can run foams but they are not race legal unless your club has some special class. For this type of racing, the MS should be just about the best choice since it is the reigning World Champ!
But there are many other great cars. The Schumacher would be an excellet choice as well as the HPI, Corally RDX and the Yokomo plate chassis cars (not their CGM tub). Those would be my choices for asphalt. These are all great cars that are not too stiff for ashpalt and were more than likely designed with ashpalt racing in mind. The nice thing with the MS is that there is nothing you will need to be competitive except spares. With some of the cars I mentioned you will need to buy a front one-way and maybe some other stuff for more tuning options.
I do have a feeling that the TC4 will be a great ashpalt car once they figure out the set-up.
