Realistically you have no idea what you are getting on too many levels.

I have rethought my suggestions and have two scenarios I will point you towards to get your feet wet.

A) Get the 1/16th BL Revo, a good 30c plus 3s lipo, some good street foams, and start there, get some extra bigger pinions and play with the speeds and get used to the idea

B) do the same but with a rustler VXL and a good 30c 5000mah 3s lipo and some street foams

I would stay off the rocks going over 50 mph period. Anything over that and it's smooth pavement only, I teel you thins from experience. Invest in either a small GPS or a radar gun so you know your true speeds. Also like snellemin said invest in an eagletree system so you can properly log what your system is doing.

Start this deal in baby steps and go from there. Who knows, you may get out there and get tired really quickly of speed, then you still at least have a good basher. You may love speed and go up from there but I think either of those is a logical scenario for you at this point.

If you start getting into a 12s system and all the needed accessories you will be over $1500.00 quick!
