This,he's got a clue...((Yes,I know.. Captain Obvious..) It does look expensive,and how much circle track experience,do you actually have? I would start ,with a good chassis,and a simple basic engine combination to learn,unless you have serious experience,pocket book/ or sponsors... Don't forget to find out,what certain racers are charging,for sponsor ship ,on the car.Don't get under changed,you have sweat ,soul,and tears in this investment,after a wreck.Remember,there's a lot of work,for some serious fun....
