Disaster

[brad55102]

My first trip to the road, ended in disaster. My first nitro car took me weeks to tune and break in. I took it to the street for my first run and wham, right into the side of a steel dumpster at 40mph. $#%^& A little word of advise, dont buy a no name car, no name = no parts. This means i have to buy a new car. It makes me want to scream

Sometimes you can call the number for those no-name companies and get their factory replacement parts directly from them. Either way, that is a bummer to hear. You might be able to salvage the radio equipment at least?

i had the same problem with the exact same car. i broke it on my second day out. it took me a while but i found a place to find parts for it. i ended up getting a totally new car anyways, but here is the link to the parts page for it

i went with a redcat tornado bb pro for my next car. i have a local shop that is an authorized redcat racing dealer, so its really easy for me to get parts, and i dont even have to wait on shipment. good luck getting what you need, or choosing a new car.

I would really reccomend getting a new car. Had a friend who had a no name brand car and it as worth a crap and parts were outrageous. The thing is, you can good a good name brand car for the same prices as the other ones finding good deals on new or used ones. And you can save a lot of money on parts in the future by catching deals on ebay and that kinda stuff.
