new to touring/on road

[djsoggy123]

Hi all, I am looking for a touring car that is a good basher but will also enter me in to some events at my local club (Teeside radio car club).

 

A few options are: 

Schumacher Mi5 Associated Qualifier Series APEX V-Type,

HPI Sprint 2 Sport 

 

maybe a bit of drifting as well

 

Yokomo D1 Drift Package - Hayashi AE86 Levin,

HPI Sprint 2 Drift Nissan 350Z

 

 thanks for the help

If you want to race, the MI5 is by far the best kit out of those listed.  The Associated and the HPI are based on kits that are now over 10 years old.  They'll still go round a track ok (with the right setup) but it will be hard to make them compete should you become serious about racing.

 

The Associated and the HPI are usually sold as RTR kits and include all the electrics though so the MI5 route will be far more expensive.

 

Other kits to look out for include the 3Racing Sakura Sport XI and the Spec R S2.  Both can be purchased for around

Ok thanks,   would an mi1v2 be okay and i found it to be more subtle for my budget http://www.modelsport.co.uk/pages/home/1

if i went down the rtr route it would probably be this:http://www.modelsport.co.uk/hpi-sprint-2-sport-rtr-69-mustang-rtr-x/rc-car-products/380558

 

also ill pop down to my local club this weekend to see what they are running.

Mi1v2 isn't a bad car but still its based on a really old model.

I would save an extra few quid and get the mi5 while they are still only 199
