Looking for 1/8 or 1/9 On Road Car....help please!
Hi guys, finally cleared some PayPal fonds….I’m looking for a either a rally car or touring road 1/8 or 1/7. I have a MMM 2200kv combo along with a CC BEC at a 7955TG or a 79050TH servo I could use.
I have no intentions on racing except maybe heading out to the track to play. I had an Inferno GT2 but the stock nitro motor blew a con rod maybe after its first tank….let alone my Savage motors hold a tune better than the Kyosho motors!
Now I’m leaning on a large 1/8 or 1/7 kit that has a scale look to it….not that super concept car look.
The Ofna DM-1 Spec E caught my eye esp the roller for $247 free shipping. Then I saw the Ofna Ultra-GTP $205 shipped.
What are the differences between the two? Is there really a $50 difference? Everyone I talked to into 1/8 on road love the DM-1….can someone share light on this? Thanks!!!

both kits are good.... the GTP-e will require a $50 rear PBS kit for full out right racing, so there really isn't a savings...
the DM1 is good for racing right out the box ...
hope that helps

I've seen a completely stock dm-1 compete with a fully kitted "every upgrade option available" with a good driver behind the wheel...
