looking for some advice about where to buy one.
first the reason i want one. i had a few as a kid, just cheap ones that were in all honesty quite crap, but then my father bought me a replica frontera with 2 gears and a separate reverse. it was mental, so when i was about 15 i bought a Tamiya lunchbox kit with the latest brushless motor and upgraded servos, springs, wheels the lot. it went like a stabbed rat on crack and i loved it.
now, my father appears to have bought my son one of those ride on electric cars (similar to a toylander but its a plastic moulded thing), and best of all its remote controlled, so i was thinking, the missus could control the boy in his car and i could hoon around with an rc car.
now, as i haven't really got any spare cash im just looking for something electric, 2wd capable of being used on a footy pitch, fairly cheap and something with a decent battery life, maybe half hour of fun, i don't mind getting spare battery packs. not really looking for another lunchbox yet, and nitro seems a bit expensive for what could just be a few weeks of honing around a footy pitch until the baby gets bored of it
