Question Newbie: Which R/C car should I get?

Hey guys, I'm looking into getting a small R/C car. So far I'm leaning towards the bit char-g's. Who sells them for the best price???

I was considering getting a 2.6 motor later on, but I think some bit-charg's already come with this motor?


Is there another car I should get instead?

The answer to your question is...It depends.

It depends on how SMALL you want, and what your budget is.

All in all though, the Bit is not a bad way to go. They're inexpensive and they've got a TON of upgrades you can do to them.

As far as the motors that come with them? It's all different, use the chart over at Questformadness (HERE) you'll see what cars are available, their frequency and the motor that comes with them.

Good luck!

I'm looking for the best price on something the size of a Hot Wheel or maybe a tad bit bigger. Price is a major concern for me. My local Mall sells them starting at $24.

Your local mall has the Bit Char-G for $24?

You might want to double check that those aren't the imitation Bits...It it's the real thing though, definitely pick 1 up...That's a very good price for a Bit (an OFFICIAL Bit, that is).

Alright, then I have to say: Shipped from Japan (that means long wait) and high shipping rates.

Even so, HLJ does have decent price and good selection.

In that case, you should check out the Epochs; BC-Gs are about half the size of a Hot Wheels, while the Epoch is a little larger:
