This was my first purchase of a nitro car and the overall experience was pretty good. Don't expect too much from the term 'ready to race' though. These cars come ready built, but getting the engine tuned up takes time and patience and the manual was pretty poor. YouTube has loads of great HowTo videos, and I suggest watching a few to get the engine working as it should. Also, breaking in the engine is a must if you want it to last and perform properly, and be aware this will get you through a few glow plugs and tanks of fuel. Buy at least two spares! When you order don't forget fuel, filter oil, and a starter set, plus batteries if you need them. These are fun cars, and really good value, but easy to damage due to the high speeds so be prepared to buy spares. Fortunately, these aren't too expensive either. Good fun!
