Also, what brand of Lipo battery should I be looking for? I also saw an xxxx mah related to the lipo batteries. What does that mean and which numbers should I be looking for there? And is the voltage always 7.4 for the lipos? What voltage do I need?

You have already received the best advice there is about the car.

Given the restricted info you provide, it is very difficult to go any further. Besides, there is plenty of info around if you search. Perhaps it would help you crystallise your intentions better if you did a bit of homework.

Any car in the right hands will beat any other car. The three you are looking at are right up there. There are others, but as you have been advised already, it makes no sense to talk about them if you can't get them or parts.

And about the price range, you didn't mention it yet. The cars you're looking at are around the 500$ mark, but keep in mind, to set yourself up and actually put the car down on the track at competitive level you'll probably need about 3k$ assuming you buy everything new.

Take the advice you have received and pay a visit to your local track. It's the best advice there is.
