Maximum, I have a team associated TC5 (all carbon fibre) with a brushless motor in it, set up for countersteer drifting. It's not as expensive as you may think. I'm can't really use mine so if you're interested send me a PM. Here are my cars.
Here's my 1/8 Truggy, have a couple of grand in this
Truggy
Here's my drifter
Here's two of my older cars
Revo with the RB
Revo with the picco
The stock revo's aren't much chop, but when you sink some cash into them they are fairly decent, I liked them more than I liked my savage. I hate the rod end play that they develop, though.
I've had a few other cars as well. Good hobby.
My next rig will be this
Losi: 1/5 5IVE-T 4WD Off-Road Truck Black Bind-N-Drive: Losi (LOSB0019BLKBD)
It's a 1/5 scale like the HPI, but it will rip the baja up, it's based exactly off a 1/8 truggy but beefed up, so it will be durable as, and it's 4wd so it will jump properly, unlike the baja lol. I'll rip the stock 26cc out and put an OBR motor in it. Hopefully pick one up around xmas time.
my part time job is to repair and tuning rc cars , from nitro`s to 2 stroke monsters .
on any given work day i get to use 10 + cars and then give them back lol.
heres my 1/5th off roader [ hpi 5sc ss]
with a 27.2cc race port engine and a tuned pipe .

You going to get the losi when it comes out, mate? Nice Short course. Do you have a 5th scale track where you are?
