Im not a racer and in fact im more of a basher and like to just rip them around the yard and stuff with my kids. I have a couple 1/5 scales and ive had nitro in the past but this will be my first nitro in years. anyway, my needs are more of a basher, overall decent motor that is RELIABLE and once you get it tuned maybe is good to go? Thats what has scared me away from nitro, every time we would get my trucks out, they wouldnt start or whatever. Anyway, just hoping to get something pretty affordable, not high end at all but reliable and enough get up to rip it up. What about a decent pipe to match? Thanks again for any thoughts or ideas!
