What chassis would you guys recommend? a budget of 225-250$. In my area, the rules don't mention the width, just that the cars need rubber tires, and look scale, with a max of 21.5 motor.
- Speed Passion SP-1 - i read the front end is delicate, specifically where you screw the ball end
- Yokomo F1 - expensive for what it is, no?
- 3Racing F113 - not much on here about it, cool front end
- Kyosho - looks nice, i hear the front end breaks when you look at it? comes with fiberglass, and not carbon...
- Tamiya TRF101 - out of my budget

any recommendations other than these? i'm all ears!

If they dont have a width limit I would go with either a F104W (the gp variant being my favorite) or a 103. the wider cars with the smaller diameter wheels and larger rear tire patch are just plain faster.
