Just race!! Everyone has a personal preference. I chose the CRC because the battereis don't have to be taped in and I could adjust fore and aft independantly from side to side. This is for both dampening and spring rate. It works for me.

I have a spring 1/10 car and a T-plate 1/10 car, both have their advantages. I just don't like changing the T plate. Personal thing.

GET ANY 1/12 AND RACE IT!! They are all in the $150 to $250 range. Then you can decide.

I think Racerdx has had some really bad crashes, I have never broken the things he has.

Rule # 1 Have Fun!
