My first Buggy
k, im getting my first buggy, im thinking of getting a team associated rc10b4 electric buggy, a now its good but is it the best, my price range is $200-$350 dollars(not included upgrades), now i want a fun car, but i also want it to be competitive.

RE: My first Buggy
You could check out the losi's at www.horizonhobby.com there pretty good, there a bit stronger, and a little more "race ready"
Go check out your LHS, if they carry only AE parts, then you need to get an AE, if they carry only losi then you need to get a losi.

RE: My first Buggy
how bout a more specific link, cause all i saw for losi where trucks, and i want a buggy, and my range is still $350 so it depends on that.
Also, u have to buy team losi parts for a losi car or can u get other stuff. THnx.

If you mean stock replacement parts, then yes you would need to buy the ones from losi, but if youre talking about hop-ups then no. You can get hop-ups from a number of companies.

RE: My first Buggy
no thanks, but how much was it when u got it, i would really like to get a new one, but i think its to expensive cause u still have to get the radio and motor and stuff.
