Welcome to the board Jdawg!

It's mostly 1/14 to 1/16 scale, with the occasional 1/12 vehicles coming along. 1/10 and 1/18 are pretty noticibly out of scale

First big consideration is which aspect excites you the MOST right now? Trucking, Construction, Farming, Warehouse, Scenery...

Do you want a Kit to start with, Convert something, Scratch build, or buy Custom ARTR?

There are some cheap options, more options that run about what 1/10 crawlers cost, and several that run into 'but i can buy a *real* car for that much'.

For some homework, go look up these channels
- Youtube gold / Loading kings
- Monsterchannel24
- rcplanet
- rc live action

Then go read through the old posts in the Events section here. That should turn up your stoked to 11

I doubt anyone will really be having any big meets the rest of this year, and the small meets like to know people before inviting them over to play. If we get this plague knocked down, hopefully some of the big ones come back early next year.
