I'm here at L.A. Where can I buy Radio Control cars here and what to buy? Nitro TC3? Yokomo? Serpent? HPI?

Please advice. Thanks.

Your best bet would be Ultimate Hobbies in Orange. They have some good prices and carry just about every brand out there.

yes indeed...ultimate has the lowest price on kits (yokomo, mugen, tc3, etc...), but you can also check www.speedtechrc.com or elite hobbies in covina, they have great customer service and friendly worker.

I finally found a hobby store here at Kings Park, Long Island.

I decided to get an RTR for now and the only ones they have is the TC3 and OFNA LD3.

The latter seems to be a good value.

Any opinions?

I don't plan to race it for now. Just as a parking lot racer.
