Default time to crawl

hi, im off to tennessee for 3 weeks in 11 days so its the perfect time to get myself a crawler. i run an s-maxx and jato at the moment but as fun as they may be its costing me a small fortune keeping them going. dont intend on selling them but having something else to play with should hopefully save me money in the long run.
my minds 110% made up on the axial ax10. i love the way its designed and the price for a proper crawler straight out of the box. what im not sure on doing is getting the kit and all the extras individually or buying the kit as a combo. looking to spend about $350 for the kit and everything needed to run it.
been having a look around a ton of websites and ebay seems to be coming up trumps. this is the cheapest i can find. should i go for this or are there better deals to be had?

That is a good starter kit. I purchased my stage 3 ultimate kit from CKRC crawlers. They are very easy to deal with and know what they are talking about. This kit is around your price range. (pretty much the same one you are showing) http://www.ckrccrawlers.com/shop/ind...roducts_id=297 I believe you can get free shipping on any order over $300.00 too.

I was very pleased with CKRC crawlers. I will order from them again. You will like Tennessee. I'm going to Pigeon Forge Tennessee at the end of March for a small vacation.

sounds good, i guess ill deal with them via there website instead of ebay. will be my 3rd time in tennessee now, where the other half is from so get to see it alot. thinking about moving to nashville when im done with uni. were spending a few nights up in a cabin at gatliburg which would be perfect for crawling but id probably get beaten to death with a frying pan if i even suggested the idea of taking an rc car lol
