Default New To Micro - Help!

Hey Guys
New to this micro world.
I run a GT12 but want to get more stick time so I really fancy getting a micro buggy.

I like the look of the EMB-1. The kit version sounds good, although there is a place a RTR version whilst I don't plan to race, there is a club I go to that does race these, would this be competitive the RTR version? But I assume it would still be possible to mod up and make a bit more competitive if I decided to?

Many thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Best Wishes
Stuart

I've been looking at getting the emb1 and I'm planning to get the kit due to all the upgrades and I want to build it. I think the cheapest I found it was was £103 posted on Amazon.de, that was for the emb1h that has the clear shell.

The EMB-1 kit motor is a really nice motor, good smooth power and lots of it !!

They work really geared high too, think mine was on a 22t pinion !!

Tamiya TC pinions fit the motor and spur gear from memory..
