Redcat Racing's Series of "Tremors"
If low-cost and low barrier-to-entry vehicles (that aren't lacking in the fun department) are your thing, Redcat Racing has a lineup for you. Their Tremor Series is a set of two 1/16 scale vehicles that come in both truck (Tremor ST) and truggy (Tremor SG) styles.

Powered by brushed motors, the Tremor truck and truggy are both 4-wheel drive and are equipped with spring coil shocks, a 2-in1 ESC/receiver, and a 2.4ghz radio. The plastic chassis that supports these models is what we've come to expect from a small-scale vehicle, so there are no surprises there.

The two Tremor machines retail for $99.99 each, making them perfect for indoor bashing or as a "throw in the bag and go" vehicle when you're out and about this summer. If you do a little digging, you should be able to find them for less than that price. They both look like a tempting, low-cost option that will create endless amounts of entertainment. So much so, that a deeper look and review may be in order.
