i bought 4 am mr-02's for our home track and practice time and labeled each car. you can pick up bodies on sale. i bought these when thei shop had them on sale. bought 6 of them. i find it easer when all the kids have the same body type thus less arguing. just changed up the paintjob. they have since moved on to the db9's so we have one of each body the released which was a bit more expensive to do than the gt-r r34. i keep ours box stock. they want to go faster but that means less control for them and more parts i have to buy for them when they break them which is gauranteed. we also painted the controllers for fun. l let the kids pick a color and each painted it or helped.


2.4 is just to expensive for the kids. the kt-18 sucks and extremely overpriced. it simply is not worth the $80-100 shops are asking for them. pick up am cars. you can get a chassis for maybe $90-100 each and a kt-5 is dirt cheap these days.
