Either V1S or FW05S will be better as you will most likely destroy this car if you never driven a RC car. I would go even further and suggest that you get a Kyosho Mini Z or a Tamiya TT-01 <a style='text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 3px double;' href="http://www.serverlogic3.com/lm/rtl3.asp?si=24&k=electric%20car" onmouseover="window.status='electric car'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">electric car</a> just to learn how to build a car and drive. They are considerably slower and you can learn how to drive without destroying the car. Once you feel confident about your driving ability you can then go for a RTR nitro or even a pro kit. Otherwise you will just be throwing your money away.
Hey Guys, don't you think that if someone wants to start racing, is better to run a pro-kit, since they are stronger, and easier to drive than the RTR's??
I think that if you have a good car with good radio and good servos, the car will be easier to control, then you will learn how to drive faster, since you don't have to work on the car to make it faster, you just have to drive it.
