i'm looking to buy a new crawler after geting fedup of trying to make my wheely king competative. the cars that i have narrowed it down to are, losi 1/10 crawler, venow creeper and the axial ax10 artr. what in your opinion is the best one to start with to build a comp crawler.

thanks in advance

Don't know 'bout the Venom, but I have the Axial ARTR.
I like the ARTR a lot, but for the price, and the axles, I think I may get a Losi 1/10 (IF my LHS ever gets one in that I can look at)
The ARTR is nice, lots of parts out there for it, but WORM DRIVE axles IMO is going to be THE way to go for a comp rig.

if i was looking at buying a comp rig i would 100% wait for the losi after watching del montes and richard trujillo's in comparison to other drivers with very competitive rigs the losi is very nice and the dig looks so smooth

If ya want to have an edge over the competition build a berg....but if your set on choosing one of those three then i would get an axial...the losi is not coming out til late may and i have heard nothing but bad on the creeper....I know for a fact that the Axial can be set up to be one competitive rig.

i'm open to sugestions for other rigs, but these are the ones i found that are in my price range. i'm looking under £250

the losi isnt even out to the masses yet. ya, sure, there are a few who are testing them, but i wanna know something's proven before giving into all the hype (ala obama).

if you want now, with your budget, ax10 is the way to go.
