Yeah sometimes you just have to put it out there to try something. I had to buy EVERYTHING to get goign in this class. I was only off road at the time. And wasnt sure if id even like on road but gave it a shot and love the VTA class. And honestly the stuff you need to get is cheap already new. Youll spend more time and headache tryign to find used stuff right now then if you just went and spent the $40 + a body. Be lucky your not trying Truggy or somethign like that. $100 to build a set of wheels and tires generally for that class.
