Default Hello

Hi

Just thought I'd introduce myself and see if I could ask you guys for advice.

I have been out of RC racing for many many years, my last racer being an RC10T
which I used to race at a local club near where I lived in South Africa.

I'm quite keen to get back into RC as I need a hobby that keeps my hands busy and gets me out of the house.

I was wondering what advice you guys may be able to offer, in terms of which model to go for and where is the best place to buy?

As I mentioned I used to race an old RC10T(by old I mean when Losi first released the XX) but I'm looking to go for 1/10 off-road buggies this time. not sure to go 2wd or 4wd I suppose it would depend on which I could race more.

So far I've looked at the new Losi 22 and the RC10B4.1 quite different in terms of prices and quite possibly class, but thats why I came here :-)

are Tamiya a viable race brand? in the past they were more plastic lumps that were just good fun, but didn't work all that well.

anything you guys can help with would be greatly appreciated
