    Word, you remember the guy is the F355 Spider? He didn't want any!

    You can get some used on ebay for around $150 RTR (Ready to Run) let me know if you need hellp chosing a good one.

    Brand new 1/10 scale can run from $150-$400 gas to electric. But the Nitro versions impresses the audience.

    for starters i would go with an HPI 1/10 sclae Nitro kit, mainly because parts are readily available for every application.

    As far as the WRC Focus body goes; you can get any body for any pretty much car. Just make sure it is consistent with the scale.

    I don't attend any events. The hobby isn't highly supported like it is out in California, but we do find nice vacant lots to run them in.

    yea these things are awesome, For anyone who is around the Cumming area, and know where HobbyTown is up here. On sundays they have a small track setup for R/C's, at least when it is nice out.
