    It all depends really. By the looks of it Sc4mpi and MDK have the later models, which have all your modifications done for you. I bought my SS back in 2004 so it was the first generation, with no servo saver on teh steering, 2 spiders in the diffs and all that. By the time I had finished building it, modding it, hopping it up and added my digital 3PK radio it landed me at about £900ish. The radio alone was like £300.

    :blah:

    Kits ***, imo.

    Being only £300 now, it really does tempt me to get another sometime. Probably after i get a real car though, since its hard enough to carry around one, nevermind twins.

    Heres my old Associated T4.
    [​IMG]
    I loved that thing to death but i was in to the video games then and traded it for an Xbox and some games, Stupid :wallbash: I guess its now called the Black Basher, I upgraded the speed controller to a Novak Dually and had a 15 turn Reedy Pt modified motor in it. Oh i wish i never traded it away. Im thinking about getting a stampede though because of my new house and its location. Do you think i should go for a stampede or a little bit more expensive?

SORRY IF THEY'RE TO BIG! and yes the car is dirty.. im also going to waterproof it, so i can go muddin TOUGH!! Raced a few SAVAGE 25's or whatever they are, they were bragging that they would beat me in a race, and once this badboy hit 2nd gear it took off and left them in the dust, it was great.. then they felt stupid
