No prob. I'll tell you why. First of all there's that list, so lot's of choices from lot's of cool cars. There's paint scheme, originality, numbers, stickers, cool factor, etc. Price somewhat. Availability. Last but not least, performance.
I know it's old news now but the MX-Stang looks good to me. Cheap, available, easy to paint, never seen one at my club, and it apparently is pretty neutral handling. So, I've pretty much decided with one minor exception. The Tamiya bodies. For a newb, those .8mm thick bodies are very tempting for their durability. Still, I've narrowed it down quite a bit.
In the end though, you're right, I should just pick one and go racing!
