After much deliberation over which car to get I've decided to get an electric buggy and have a bit of fun with it, then later I will get a nitro touring car, but whats the difference between engines 380 & 540, I know the 380 is a 3 pole and the 580 is a 5 pole but in simply easy to understand English which should I got for?

I thought it would be an easy choice, see a car I like then buy it, but then there's 2WD or 4WB, type of engine etc.

This is the one I'm going to get (unless I change my mind when I get to the shop) http://www.modelsport.co.uk/?CallFun...n&ItemID=19612

And then do I get kit or pre-assembled, the kit's work out slightly dearer but I think I would have more fun building and painting it.

Why aren't things in life simple?
