Well i live in s.w. louisiana so idk if there are too many comps around. But just like my real crawler when i get into something i really get into it. So i know i may start out with a medicore rig then completley change it. I guess there really isnt a budget. But like any true person im always looking for a deal. Ive messed around with losi nitros before im not to fond of them. Just a preference. I guess ill keep reading.

Out of those listed, for someone new to the hobby, I'd choose #2.

You could always pay the $20 for a star here and be able to see the classifieds right away. then getting a used rig will be less of a gamble. Also with your star you can enter the vendore giveaways to win some new schwag for your new crawler |

If budgeting is not an issue, It will not matter which one you purchase. You will throw Hundreds of Dallahs into it. But IMO, choose door #4. |

Thanks for all the input yall. I found this add local at a hobby shop how much would yall pay for it? Its in pretty good shape BTW. Up for sale is my Custom built 2.2 Comp crawler. It has a Twenty 1 Eleven D1 derlin chassis and narrow derlin skid, Losi 4" shocks, Holmes 35t motor, Mamba Max ESC, weighted and vented Berg wheels, Panther soft Cougar tires with memory foam, Axial axles with heavy duty lockers, CKRC behind the axle steering linkage to increase steering angle and aproach angle, CKRC servo mount, hardened ring and pinion front and rear, rear straight axle conversion, aluminum high clearance knuckles and C-hubs, 2300mah LIPO, Castle BEC, Hitech 7955tg steering servo, Axial tranny, DNA dig with new steel internals and Hitech 225 servo, 3link front and 4link rear suspension for good articulation. This crawler climb and sticks well and places pretty good at most comps it's been in. Custom painted HPI bug body will be included as well. Just add your radio gear and get crawling . |

buy you a star and view the for sale ads. you are less likely to get ripped off on here and it will probably be cheeper. i would have to say go with an axial based crawler. easy to maintain, cheap parts and huge aftermarket of parts and support for it. good luck bud
