I have been using RC cars for quite a while and have been impressed with some of my purchases.The first touring car a brought was made by “Team Associated”(TC4). I chose this because it was the the new and improved version of the old TC3. From looking at reviews and technical images i was impressed with the specification Vs the price. In its life of racing it has always done quite well, parts were easy to get hold of and repairs were quick and relatively simple to carry out. The adjustability of the car was not as good as other cars if you wanted to spend more money, but for the price bracket that it was in it proved to be more than enough. For a beginner it was perfect because of tune-ability and quality of parts. I think this is one of the best shaft driven 4wd touring cars for the price and would be great for beginners or the experienced with different versions to suit different needs. My most recent purchase was a Hong Nor X1 CRT. This took me a while to part with my cash because of expense as i would be building the car from scratch even though there was a Built version available at that time. My reason for buying were because of the cars past achievements. It has one many National and international events and has a very good reputation. I also examined the car for adjustability which is very good and beats many other similar cars of the same spec. Obviously i cant talk about performance because that depends on what the individual puts in their car. All i can say is that mine and many others that are out there racing are doing very well. I would recommend this greatly if you are looking for a larger off road car for racing purposes.However these two i have mentioned were on a medium budget. If you want to spend different amounts of money local hobby shops will be able to advise you on what is suitable to buy for your circumstances.The last thing i would like to say is that just because i believe these two to be a good purchase doesn’t mean that they will be the right option for you. There are many cars out there, its just trying to find the one that suits you best. Also the best equipment in the world doesn’t mean you will be the best driver. Its much better to put your trust in your skill rather than the car you have, practice makes perfect.The last thing is when looking to buy a car always check for the availability of parts you may need. If you cant get the parts for repairs you cant run your car.
