Default nitro stampede

i am a complete newbie to all of this. i was wanting just a good all around nitro offroad truck/buggy and then i came across the nitro stampede or the nitro sport and i cant decide which one to get. If you have any other suggestions i am open to them. I also want to know if the stock remote control is good enough for both. thanks in advance

If are you BRAND new to the Rc world.
I recomend geting a Electric truck first.

Good start one's.

Traxxas electric Stampede

Traxxas electric Rustler

There are cheap around $160-$180 depending on which one you get.
Plus a 7.2v battery and a charger.

for electric e-fiestorm or nitro the firestorm they both go like rockets and they both look briliant and both are great bashers

Dont get that truck on that link you posted.
Get a NAME brand rc company and were you can get part's easy at your Local Hobby Shop.

Like i said before get an electric first.
If you are really wanting a nitro get a traxxas nitro truck,But as i say again i really think you should get an electric
