No but one has a 24.7 and the other has a .18 and I could borrow my friends .12 novarossi, but I'm sure that your .12 is more powerful

So what kind of car would you like/what's your budget </TD></TR></TABLE>
I want a crazy power to weight ratio pretty much sums it up. And it needs to be a buggy or sort of truck. I would love to go car, but I simply dont live in an area with lots of good smooth parking lots. So, to the grass and dirt it is.
I'd ideally like a .28 or 8 port .21 in a small RWD buggy. From what I've read though, I can get a 4wd and disconnect the front shaft at any time I wish.
I dont mind a used vehicle either.

You could buy used but you may end up with a beat up POS mess, my friend bought one off of ebay and it was, several others I know have have ended up in the same matter.
Monster trucks are good too but you said you want a buggy correct?
Whats your budget?
You might want to look at the hotbodies truggy. It's made by HPI so the quality is there.

budget? My gf would kill me if I spent more than $350 on this so that had better be the limit. Been tossing around the idea of selling my $500 Canon s2is brand new digital camera but just cant bring myself to do it.

You don't need to sell it
check out http://www.ultimatehobbies.com .Best prices, I go about 60 miles away from my local LHS to buy cars there.
If you could bump up the price to 420 this would be killer
http://www.ultimatehobbies.com//p687.html
^ Could eat up manythings at a racetrack and have fun bashing in a park
Reason being it comes with 2 sets of wheels and tires, and extra parts(well it comes with really good shocks/ect...
http://www.ultimatehobbies.com//p676.html
That would be about 400 ish Awesome -I have this but Race prepped
http://www.ultimatehobbies.com//p588.html *Is the same but a bit diluted from the one above but just as good.
http://www.ultimatehobbies.com//p618.html
Awesome truck
http://www.ultimatehobbies.com//p664.html
370 but I like the pro version- nothing wrong with this one, but you could buy the tamiya and get more bang/$$.
The tamiya all out owns from the box at the tracks and is and bang per dollar. However my friend still loves his revo more, But the revo is anything but stock, however it is still on the 2.5 traxxas motor.

Re: (Jay J)
I kinda like that "Tamiya TNX Pro Racing Edition RTR". Think I will research it; maybe find a vid or two from yahoo's vid search engine. You say its the most bang for the buck? What size engine is it?

Extra's the pro comes it.
It has a .18
Or get a traxxas revo or HPI savage. Can't go wrong with either

I have an OS .18 CVR-X Modded, I had the RS4 clocked at 73MPH on a speed gun.
The Sirio .12 Turbo Modded is more peppy, Haven't had the chance to clock it yet.
Although its nice to see some enthusiasts on the site.

Yeah it is. lol I took my car to civic live at dodge stadium and I was going to run it on the second day, but the damn power strip that I plugged it into over night was turned off
so I didnt have battery to run the servos and ****. As a result, I had a long boring day haha

Actually most cheaper $$ 1/8 buggies will out break a M/T

Re: (Jay J)
i agree cheaper 1/8's will but ofna and kyosho are the 2 most reputable 1/8 buggy brands. hyper 7's and infernos are like the top 2 buggys. i have won a shitload of races with mine and the only thing i have ever broken on the car is a servo horn which i upgraded to an aluminum one and never had a problem since. that and i upgraded to titanium nitride shock shafts.
