What is the best 1/10 scale car for the money. Im trying to decide between the 4tec, or one of hpi's or losi's or some other brand. Im an intermediate rc'r so im game for a faster car

TC5 probably wins this one.

it depends on what kind of money you want to spend, you can spend $100 and get something great for bashing, like a tamiya tt01. or you can spend $350 on the TC5 and get a pure race bread machine. its all in the way you want to use it. then we start talking motors, electrics, all that business is where the real money is.

i ll dissagree, for 330.00 you can get the CEN CT5 RTR. GREAT car, very adgile and can be a serious competitor if properly setup. runs like its on rails when done right, easy to control, easy to make drift or Not drift.

the nx-15 motor has been a treat to run/use. excellent for the cost of the motor. i have about 3 gallons plus thru my nx 15 on the CT5 and it just keeps going strong!

you could even get a used tt-01 or tl-01 for 75 shipped on ebay.

Your question is kind of vague. How much money do you want to spend? What do you intend to use the car for? Are you going to race it? Are you going to bash around on the street?

There are lots of nice cars on ebay if you want to save some money. Just use caution when shopping.

Why ebay? there are other stores around the web.

Because ebay has "It"... whatever "it" is.... LMAO

I love ebay... you can always find good parts and rollers cheap on ebay... there is always someone who needs diaper money and has to sell a toy!

well the best cars you can buy IMO... are the cen the schumacher's and the serpents.. and well they arent cheap but the cen is 75mph the schumacher is 80+ and the serpents are ungodly....
