Well the Bmax is a great car for starting with as its robust and easy to drive.

The first thing you will need is some batteries. There is simply no point getting anything other than Lipos but on the plus side you only really need one pack. However, the Bmax takes saddle pack lipos and these are more expensive than the stick packs.
For the esc/motor, the cheapest worthwhile setup would be an ezrun system, either 5.5t or 8.5t. The BMax is quite heavy, so I wouldn't advise the cheaper 9t version.
Any servo and radio will do at a pinch, but I'd suggest metal gears and a fairly small receiver are a good idea.
