I like it a lot actually. I hate to be this guy, so get ready for it, but roughly how much would a setup like that cost me. I don't know jack about RC, but it seems like a pretty chill hobby, which is something I'd be down with.

really depend on car actually and how much money you wanna put in to it....also nitro or electric setup....

i spent about more than 500 bucks or so....on mine because i bought lots of mods including electronics...pretty much everything....

though, a nice setup go around 100 bucks and up....this is for electric setup....

yeah if your talking about the best ones out there........a kit will cost you that much.....

other hand, RTR (ready to run) for newbies...they can go anywhere from 79.99 for a kit....ex: hpi e10 drift kit with body......
