A very good stadium truck to start out with is Team Associated's T4. If you ever decide to race, you already have a very good platform to use. The Rustler is a good basher, but will not perform out on the track. You will probably purchase a ready to run, so you will need a charger(and power supply) and batteries. A nice charger is the Duratrax ICE. It can charge basically any type of battery. For a battery, you will want to purchase a Lipo (Lithium Polymer). They offer the best run time and best overall longevity compared to Nimh's. Look into Reedy or Checkpoint for a Lipo. It's a good hobby and I'm glad you decided to join!
