Hey everyone,
It's been a while since I was last here. Last time I was here I was looking for into about nitro r/c trucks and was leaning heavily on the HPI Savage X 4.6 and was originally looking into a traxxas, but things came up that I had to swing my funding into a different direction, like buying an engagement ring and proposing, now setting a date
I'm still looking into getting into a nitro r/c, but buggy's have sparked my curiosity as of late, thanks to you tube videos.
My question is this...which is better for overall driving on street/grass/dirt, which can handle some wet/damp dirt or other surfaces, and which is good for jumping, hill climbing, shredding up dirt/gravel, and taming wooded areas along with possible snow/ice usage and bashing in general (live in New England area). Lastly which is easier to work on, find parts, and modify?
Sorry to hit you guys with so much at one time, but I'd like to get some input...I've saved up a bit and want to get a nice RTR combo kit and might purchase one around X-Mas time when I get my bonus check I think I owe myself a little treat and some fun
I'd love to hear input/thoughts/and suggested brands/makes from users of both nitro r/c monster trucks and buggy's.
Thanks in advance everyone! Nice to be back among a great hobby community as well
