I am still trying to tune my damn car. I didn't realize all the crap you have to go through in order to just get your car to run normally. What is the place called?
If you are new to R.C. cars and trucks it's best you start out with electric. that way you do not have to worry about tuning etc. They have some really fast electric cars and trucks that will go just as fast if not faster than the nitro powered ones. Check out the traxxas models like the rustler vxl, stampede vxl and the bandit vxl. you can type these names on youtube to see a vid to get an idea how fast these things go. be sure to include vxl in your search otherwise you will get the slow version of these cars and trucks.
Now you tell me. It is too late anyhow. I am actually finally understanding the tuning aspect. There is a lot to consider and lots of variables play a factor.

You can get them locally at hobbytown usa. or you can save 20-30 bucks and order them online. Depending on what kind you want to get car, truck, nitro or electric they can range in price anywhere from $150.00-$600.00 dollars. You should do a little research before buying to see what you like
