CW> No, there is a local club/track I was thinking of joining, I will ask
 CW> there if any one has gear.
you didn't mention what type of racing you have in mind. as to which type of 
car you should lean toward..watch an see what the guys who win run..see how 
easy parts and how easy they are to work on...  again losi or associated are 
great cars..schumacher not sure on the parts availabilty here  they are a 
british made car I beleive.  remember as well you get what you pay for..the 
losi kit may have bearings (Highly Recommened)  let me know what type of 
track...onroad, offroad.  type of surface  carpet, asphalt, dirt, clay.
and indoors or outdoors. you are considering racing upon..
