get a T4 team kit (not the FT! not worth the money and beak easier) check and see what classes they run at your local track, (most run a 10.5 spec class, or a mod/open class) and some run a 13.5 spec class if these are the case youll have to waste your money of a spec system but if they would allow it i would go for a MM or sidewinder with a 3300 medusa 50mm motor and a good 2s enerland 5000 pack...... gear it for mid to upper 30s and youll be good to go. also youll want to switch to 25wt oil and green springs in the rear over the standard setup to compensate for the lighter lipo setup, that or my advice would be to add stick on lead weights down the side of the tray.....

Skip the AE and get the xxxt-cr losi truck. I have a xxx-cr buggy and it is an exceptionally strong and light vehicle. Very well engineered and the manual is about the best I have seen. Plus the price is decent, especially for everything you get. If you want to win, this is your best bet. It will run circles around a rusty...

Yup. He'll also run circles around a AE.

My buggy was the best flying buggy I've ever driven. It flew as straight and level as possible.

I beat the crap out of mine, and it took it like a champ. I broke one arm, thats it. Still feels smooth and no slack.

Honestly, my old BK use to break parts pretty easily, but it was mostly cause of all the graphite I think.
