Getting
Started with RC Cars
Whether
you call RC car racing a sport or hobby its
great fun. There are several guides on the internet
about RC Cars so there's no point in repeating
all the details here. A good guide is located
at http://www.gettingstartedinrc.com
and our links page
has other useful sites.
Some
of the best advice to get started is visit your
local hobby shop and track/club to see what
people are using/racing. If you want to race
your car then make sure the local track/club
races the class of car your going to buy.
Buying
the right equipment in the first place will
save you money, so doing some research will
be worth your time. RC Car magazines are available
in most countries, they show the types of equipment
available, have tips and reviews of the latest
stuff. A lot of people say that RC cars and
equipment are expensive but in reality its as
expensive as you want to make it, when getting
started a quicker car often means you will crash
faster !
