If the $1200 is the MX you have, I wouldn't do it. I think if you want to race, you will need some tuning options and parts such as:

The point is, not everyone starts RC "racing" from the POV of wanting to wrench and tune all day. There is merit in taking a vehicle that has been built ready to (almost) race.
