An nspire CX :D

Or maybe get your parents to match it and buy a hobby-grade RC! :D :D

Then get that hobby grade RC (if your parents will match you on the price)

http://www.hobbytown.com has great selection ->radio control ->cars ->electric ->Ready to Run Trucks and Truggys is a good place to start (I might have the mapping wrong, don't blame me :P )

Look at the specs on the manufacturer's site to compare.

Traxxas and HPI are good

Losi and Associated are the best, but cost a ton of $$$

Don't buy a Helion (I made that mistake)

10th scale Short Course trucks are the best for on/off road fun!

STAY ON ELECTRIC!!! NITRO (gas powered) TRUCKS BREAK A TON

With $320 (parents matching), I'd get a traxxas slash brushed edition (~$260): http://www.hobbytown.com/Shop/-Slash-1/10-2WD-Racing-Truck-RTR-with-Battery/ and a fast charger that works with traxxas connectors (scout around on that one)

Edit: http://www.hobbytown.com/Shop/-Slash-RTR-with-2-4-Radio-7-cell-NIMH-Battery-Charger/ is a better slash due to the 2.4 GHz radio

Hm. I nearly forgot I got a 32" HDTV for my room to replace my current 27" CRT, which is next to my 27" computer screen and my 19" one.

SCREENS EVERYWHERE IN MY ROOM

Remember the day the walrus started to fly...

I finally cleared my sig after 4 years you're happy now?

you probably don't even see that 19" anymore, it's covered in bigger inches :)
