Hpi E Firestorm Flux. Call it job done! My favourite bashing car and one of the most reliable. Pretty nimble track car too if that takes your fancy.

Leaves plenty in your budget for a couple of 5000mah+ 2s lipo's from Hobbyking, and the charger/power supply/lipo sack.

Outstanding, I win ;-) lol

 

Great car, real out of the box racer and strong enough to bash; you will have a blast with it. If you are bashing get some Hobbyking turnigy nanotech Lipo batteries. The 210 takes stick pack shorty or saddle pack. Stick will probably give you the biggest capacity but you are fine with any. If you are going to race you might want BRCA approved batteries where Gens Ace and IP are decent value. I use Orion and Vampire but they are more expensive. Charger - I first used a Core UAC 50 which works fine but you can get a clone Imax B6 for half the price from Hobbyking which many seem to use.

You think its fast now? Just wait until you've moved it to mid motor and fitted a 6.5t motor in it. Then it will really shift!

 

Is that easy to do ?, i saw a youtube vid mentioning the the different mounts but that seemed factory fitted.

The kit version can be built rear or mid motor, 3 or 4 gear. The RTR comes in 3 gear rear motor but includes most of the parts to do mid motor. You will need a different gear set for 4 gear (about
