All I know is that Tamiya were the best when i was into this.....for your first off roader they used to do one called the grasshopper which was awesome and reasonable priced. theres loads to chose from but here's a starter link...

They are kits mate - but you can buy them ready made if you have a look around - model shops often make them up for you for a fee but i'd suggest it's a good way of getting to know your very serious toy - the advantage of the kit is it means your car is fully tweakable - and easy to repair - you could go for a second hand one and replace any dodgy bits - you can use most decent r/controller untis with these - and if you buy second hand, you'd likely get a top end controller if you shop around, included with the car, at a fraction of the cost.....which meants, if you get into it , you'll be able to have many cars - and only need the one controller - which wil be programmable ..... unless of course you want to drive more than one at a time it's addictive !! you'll be looking at Helicopters before you know it!!!

lol = theres even race days for these now - and you get 5 or 6 helicopters hovvering over the track with mounted video cameras

looked at them in the past... then relised, theres no where near by (ish) to fly it... and i would crash it VERY often so i wouldnt b able to afford it...

ty now just gotta talk my dad into letting me get one

oh jeah tamiya rules the grasshopper was nearly undestructable (40 oz gsoline made it then )
