What to get now?
I decided after getting the Kyosho ST-RR, I want to have one more rc car or truck. My first idea was to finish the schumacher fusion project car I once had running but since disasembled it. It needs pipe, steering servo, new set of bearings because i took all the stock ones out and tossed them, and 1 or 2 parts. But now im going back and forth on other rc's to get instead.
HPI Baja 5B SS: I always wanted a 1/5th since the first time I seen a guy run one in person, and always liked the baja 5b for countless reasons. If I get it i will probably sell the engine and pipe off immediatly and get a 29 or bigger cc motor and DDM rear exaust pipe/jetpro silenced.
Anothe 1/8th Kyosho or mugen truggy: Wouldnt mind another st-rr because i love running this truck and its near bullet proof stock. Or id get a mugen, like those trucks too. Which ever one I get, i could have as a spare truck incase the other broke or something.
Nice pro kit 1/8th buggy: Always wanted a buggy too, would probably race it on weekends and also just mess around in the neiborhood with it.
1/8th mugen or kyosho onroad race car: Are probably my favorite onroad cars of all time, right next to the 235mm onroad cars that are discontinued now unfortunatly. Would drag race this car for the most part and most likly not race it on the track.
I have a RB C6 BB L2G NIB sitting if i get one of the 1/8ths. But theres a possibility it will get sold in the future if I go with the Baja.
Whatever i go with, it will be my last rc for a long time to come what should I get and why?

OFNA CRT.5 RTR with an OS .18TZ, that engine will make it scream and it will turn quite a few heads at your local club when you can spank any Mugen that comes out to race.

I'd go with the Baja. I've got an FG 1/6 scaler and it's awesome. You won't be disappointed.

The way my house sits, theres no one to my left, in front, or behind me. Sits on the end of the street kind of issolated, theres people about 50-60 yards away so I think if I keep it down on my own street, the noise wont be a problem, even so, thats not a reason for me not to get one.

Went with the 1/8th buggy at first but about an hr after it arrived at my house it was back up for sale! lol, thats the quickest change of heart i ever had as far as making a purchase. Im going fo the 1/5th and if i really like it enoungh i might just sell the rest of my nitros.
