Default Help me choose the best 1/5 scale.

Hello everyone!

I'm looking to buy a 1/5 scale gas powered rc car.
I found a great guide here - http://www.swellrc.com/5-best-gasoli...-control-cars/ and I'm looking at the hpi baja 5b.

I've already looked at the reviews and whatnot, but what's interesting is that I found a clone for it, the KM Baja 5B..

Anyone knows what's the difference? The price is 2x cheaper than the HPI.

Default large scale car

HI CARHOUND
What are you wanting to do with the car, race it bash it or just own one.
The hpi 5b is a very good model and it will not let you down in fun, but if you are wanting to race one then you have to look at other makes such as LOSI 5 T
truck,or a buggy such as HORMANN ELCON FG etc these have been designed
for racing, once you have made your mind up the way you want to go, you could buy second hand the person might be buying new but the one they are selling might be what you are looking for.
If you are wanting advice ring NIGEL at FREEPRAWN RACING he will tell you about the cars I hope this is some help to you
