If you are looking to get into 1/8 late model racing you should look into the Losi L8ight. Losi has info about the car on their site.

Horizon has them on their site as well. Our local HobbyTown carries the cars too.

dirtoval.com is a great place to find dirt oval info on cars, classes and tracks.

I would also like to add the Ofna Dirt Oval Pro aces to get into the 1/8 Latemodel scene, this is a purpose built oval car not just a converted buggy, and its about 90.00 cheaper than the other one mentioned
