Probably better buying a second hand well known make Associated B44.1, Durango etc.. for the same money..IMO.....that way you would be sure of spares and set up advice... See them for sale on here at that sort of money...

I must agree with the guys on here... i have a couple of ftx /18th buggies n in stock trim they are a bit weak in all the usual places... diffs..gbox..arms knuckles etc.. maybe it is just a symptom of the small size but the 1/10 will prob be made with the same materials... yeh stick with a mainstream brand n if that means buying pre owned so be it.. if you do, most will be updated and sorted anyways so less spend for you in the future..

Yes great offer from James. The B44.1 is a great car for the size of track, and you can get them as cheap as that new FTX second hand, if not cheaper.
FTX brand are for bashers and kids racing on the street. not upto the job f serious racing, you I'd have thought you'd be wasting your money. When the new durango 410v4 comes out later this month, there will be loads of 410v3's real cheap. Also have a look out for a b44.1/b44.2 for that sort for money. you can pick them up used with some spares for that sort of money.
