Don't buy redcat or exceed.

Traxxas all they way they cost a pretty penny but worth it. Very durable and easy to do a maintence work on it. Parts are cheap also. But the cars/ trucks cost $$$

Hpi is good they been around a while now very well known and recommended.

Kyosho is good but getting parts cost. $$$ and are sometimes hard to get.

There's also team assosiated this will cost you a lot as most of their cars or trucks etc that are really good are kits which don't even come with a motor or engine or electronics at all .
