      its alrighty now i took it to mr toys and they said that the motor was burnt out so i bought a 20 buck motor and it runs better than the old one (could be that i got ball bearings for all 4 wheels though) so thanks for the help anyway.

      *nods* Dud motor, bearing/bush/drive shaft or gearbox can all cause that kind of noise 😉

      You need to revise your crash-avoidance reflex.

      Next time HIT THE NEIGHBOUR. :):):)
      They are soft, squishy & repair themselves.

      “Good”? Unfortunately they’re all pretty ok nowadays.

      Dunno if you’re old enough to drink yet, but its a lot like
      “good wine” these days, its just about IMPOSSIBLE to find any
      that’s totally undrinkable. Just about everything is decent,
      and the better ones ask more dough.

      If you’re talking A$400 for car only… might suggest that
      going second hand is probably a better bet. A good RC10 T3
      could cost $600-750, but about $350-450 used in good condition.
      This is a racing truck.

      A 4WD monster truck usually starts at the $700 mark, new truck only.
      Bit more for RTR ones with radio etc. Depends what you’re after.

      If you’re looking into racing, check your local tracks and see what the locals are running. It helps to have a similar car that’s popular locally, so at least you can scum off some setup tips off the locals and use that as your starting point for your car.

      Also look into parts backup. If the car you buy isn’t supported locally, you’ll have to import all your parts yourself. The shipping on all these bits will soon add up, and the downtime will be 1-2 wks at very best.

      Guys who run ‘odd’ cars usually buy 2 or more kits, for parts backup. If you can’t afford to do that, you should buy something that is well-supported by your LHS.
