Ok I raced with 1/24 sclae cars about 4 years ago and last weekend a buddy of mine showed me this new place to race cars, but they are 1/32 cars. I am looking for a good plastic chasis to start off with and a great engine. I am looking for something with a TON of speed and power. I am thinking of a few setup like one car front engine RWD one car fwd one car rear engine rwd and one car 4wd. I am wondering if yall could help me out. I have heard something about a chasis that will hookup an engine vertically and horizontally? Please just help me out.THANka. Also I have some old 1/24th scale parts for sale. ANYONE interested I have 2 chasis one solid and one with a movable rear end (rear metal will move up and down like suspension). Also I have a few gears and other crap please throw me a few bucks so I can get started back up with 1/32 scale racing THANKS>

Your best bet for speed, handeling, tuneability and power is a Slot it car. There are a few differant cars but the Porsche 956/962 is the best bang for the buck.
The Fly Viper the old style or a Panoz roadster for a front motor car. I have one 4WD Rally car that is way underpowered with no way to change out the motor, maybe try an Auto Art car I have seen one of them run and it looks pretty decent.

I am interested in the 24th scale parts, drop em off at Summit some Monday or PM me with your email address. Moose
