The TG 10 is a good first gas car, i have one and love it...but to get it up to high (semi racing) standard you need to modify...
Cons - over-steers big time in stock form. Strictly on road, cannot handle even flat dirt.
Pros - Cheap, can handle novice driving and maintenance, beats most other cars in the out of box class (eg kyosho alpha ten), fast, with mods listed below mine easily handles doughies.
Need a tuned pipe (more power), performs like shit otherwise. $50-200ish
Need to soften rear dampers(get a different shock oil) $15ish
Need a failsafe, by default the servos will go to full open throttle when 'hit' with interference, ie mobile phone this causes the car to hurtle of uncontrollably flip of the edge of the basketball court and start a grass fire (not that this has happened to me ). this is apparently a US/japan to Au conversion thing.
There is a widening kit that widens the wheel track - this helps handling majorly...tis $100ish
helps if you have a 2 speed gear box. $100ish
