Hey guys, thinking about getting an on-road car. Dunno if I'll ever race it but do like nice stuff. I have several off road buggys and stadium trucks so am familiar with most of the components. What would be a good used roller or best kit for the buck? I Have zero knowledge of these vehicles so any help or advise is appreciated. Thanks
Shane

There's a line you'll cross between having too nice a car for the road surface or too poor a chassis for a track. With 5-7mm ride heights on a nice RS chassis, then a tiny stone can make for a nasty mess because they dont fly as well as they drive. The geometry of the car doesnt support a really high setups and larger rims can cause more issues. So it's a basketball court or good clean surface. In EP 190mm tourer, look out for an Xray T4, great car, good support and you did say you like nice things
