Used buggy - 100 bucks

MMM/2650 combo - 250 bucks

4s lipo - 60 bucks

Charger/PS - 100 bucks

Battery tray and esc mount - make em yourself!

Motor mount - 60 bucks from Mike

Radio - 100 bucks

Assorted stuff - 60 bucks

700+ here... I would try to find a used roller with a rcm mount, and good tires. I think skellyo had a couple of rollers for sale that had mounts and battery trays already on them.

This is not a cheap hobby...as many people can tell you, you can reduce cost in some areas, but 1/8 performance electric- truggy, buggy can beat the hell out of a credit card...good luck

Used buggy, used electrics, used everything. I buy alot of used stuff, as that is the only way I can afford to grow the fleet! You may also find deals on lots of rc parts. Buy it all cheap and sell off what you do not need. Often I can do this and effectively get what I wanted out of the deal for free (I have a fair amount of my time in it though). I once bought 3 rustlers, inc a new vxl and managed to sell the other 2 for just shy of what I paid for all 3. So I got a new vxl rustler for 20 bucks plus my time. I have done this a few times with lipos (thanks to everyone who buys them from me!) and got a free pack out of it. If you can save a decent chunk of money to have available you can jump on deals. I try to keep 500 bucks handy to do this, and be prepared to sit on some stuff for a few weeks while it sells.
