:shrug: I am looking towards getting an 1/10 scale offroad car, but which car to get is the problem. I have a spending limit of about $350US. I have an OS Max 18 cv-r that i would like to put in the car so the car will have to be able to accomodate it.

Some car suggestions please, Thanks. :)
 
When you say offroad, there are a few possiblities. Do you want a stadium truck or a monster truck?
 
Check out the Rc10Gt. Theres alot of parts available for it, and there very durable and fun little trucks. And very upgradeable to get ya on the track.
 
The rc10gt factory team version would fit the bill. There is a lot you could get with $350, if you already have the engine!
 
I guess it depends if he plans on racing. If he's looking for a 1/10 basher, I might be more inclined to suggest the HPI Nitro RS4 MT2. 4 wheel drive. A bit taller and may be able to handle a bit more terrain and will still hold the .18 he has on hand.
 
how about a traxxas jato? they seem pretty good, havent heard too much about them

this would probably be the route that i would go.

I second that choice :) The MT2 .18SS has even more upgrades out the box. RC10GT would be excellent choice also. Although if you plan on racing a .18 may not be legal were your at.
