Default New Car-For beginners

Hi guys,

I am new to Nitro Cars and wondered if anyone had any advice on a car to get. I have a budget of about £60 and im fairly praticle and could fix some problems with cars. My brother had one a few years back but he sold it and didnt get another one. I really enjoyed using it now i have some money was thinking of getting one myself.

Thanks alot,

Tom

I have $96 US dollars. I was looking on ebay at a Hobao pirate 10 and a HPI rush evo. Any other suggestions?

TBH for £60 you are not going to find much nitro powered from new, also do you have any items already or would you be needing a RTR with everything included, im guessing that the closest to your budget will probably be a small scale 1/16th 1/12th elec truck/buggy with everything included, let us know exactly what you have already what power source you would like and maybe more ideas will appear
