Yes in the rc world you get what you pay for. I own a 400 dollar chassis and its a nice car.

On road is fun, but you gotta have. Big place to use it. Most common scale is 1/10, so the lest expensive stuff will be around there. If you're set on a street car, check out hpi and their sprint series (or rs, if you have some extra bucks). For off-road, I really enjoy ecx.

This. I think the fun comes from building, tweaking, testing and meeting up with other enthusiasts to race yours against theirs. So I guess you'll have to find out if you like building and tweaking them first.

I dunno, I got a little cheapo miniature japanese one (like one of those hotwheel sized ones) and it's pretty fun. I drive it around on my coffee table sometimes.

>will I regret getting an onroad one due to the inflexibility?
Perhaps, depends on where you live. But realise full well that offroad vehicles can do well on road too.

>are ones under 100 gonna be crap?
more than likely.
If you go for budget tier, go with traxxas. They offer better bang for buck in the lower tiers. But that's just me talking from an offroad perspective.

Also realise if you get things running very quick, they crash real hard. I own two 50+mph offroad vehicles and fuckups tend to cost a lot.

Sure as hell beats driving circles in an empty parking lot though.
