Default wantin to crawl

so ive never owned an RC car before and i think now would be a great time to invest. i know nothing about them but all i know is i want a crawler. anyone have suggestions for a first time buyer? is it better to get a crawler that already has motor and esc installed or should i get one that doesnt have one included and pick it out for myself? any other tips would be great!

Default losi

Get the losi comp crawler. I had my first ever comp today and took first. I love this crawler. I was beating the MOA rigs.

Hey fellas,
I run 1/8 buggy and truggy and thought it would be cool to get into crawling so on the weekends when we're rained out we could play. I bought a Duratrax Cliff Climber. It's really cool, but I just can't get into it, and my bud's won't buy one of there own. I know this isn't the right forum but if there's interest in taking it off my hands let me know and I'll post pics and price.

Default crawler king

go with the Hpi Crawler king,it already has a motor and esc . Just needs different tires . The best tires to me are rovers they come in 1.9 or 2.2 sizes.
the 2.2 size is about 5 inches tall.Are you going scale or just a very good crawler?
