Im looking at the kyosho Evolva-Serpent 950r- Mugen MRX-4. These are what i can think of off the top of my head. and these seem to be the best way to go as for parts. I just need it for parking lot terrorizing.
As for a motor im thinking on one of the new O.S on-road motors for like 200 or just go and get a nice JP or another sirio but knowing my .12 sirio was not that great of a motor... It was fast and all but it allways ideld werd and very funky. Or maybe its just me, not used to having a motor like that.
Have you raced the car yet?
I promise that you will blow your car up in the first sweeper at your track. Stick to what you have now before dropping $1000 into a 1/8 car and mediocre engine, not including pipe, manifold or electrics.
