      The Loctite SE Skyline will definitely keep you busy. I hope you have some “wide open spaces” to run it, because it’s too fast to stay on a table. You might want to add a 1.0 engine to your order, just in case you need something a little more manageable.

      P.S. Welcome to the Message Boards!

      Personnally, I’d suggest the booster set. I like it better than my SE Skyline. But that’s just my opinion. Get one of these:

      27 MHz http://www.toyeast.com/proddetail2.asp?pdtid=ATORC042

      35 MHz http://www.toyeast.com/proddetail2.asp?pdtid=ATORC043

      45 MHz http://www.toyeast.com/proddetail2.asp?pdtid=ATORC044

      57 MHz http://www.toyeast.com/proddetail2.asp?pdtid=ATORC045

      I also suggest either 35 or 45 MHz since some have problems with 27 and 57.

      I got my Booster Car(35mhz) and controller yesturday. And I am not sure if it’s jsut mine that’s exibiting some quirkiness, but the “slow” speed is worse than a 1.0 motor…. it barely moves at all. (Tried bot ha 2.2 and a 3.0 motor) but with trubo down, runs just fine.

      The controller is dead sexy. It puts me in the mind of the old Genesis and Snes type game pads. But man is the range terrible… it barely works 3ft past my feet.

      Is it just me, or is anyone else noticing a large variance in quality control with these products?

      I have had a bad motor(2.2) and varying performance between my cars… hmmm….

      Oh sorry, the 27 and 57 MHz problems…

      Some people have 57MHz cars that can be controlled with 27MHz controllers and some have reception problems with 27MHz. They all work, but I just think 35 and 45 are “safer” for a first car. Don’t want you getting all discouraged or disappointed if you have one of these problems.
