i was running a 4.5 novak in my bj4we at york indoor and went flat out down the straight where i hit a wall and survived with all still intact got to be the biggest inpact ive seen and heard

ak33 13-11-2007 04:50 PM

Im thinking of buying the B44, will that hold up well?

Lee 13-11-2007 04:59 PM

It might hold up the other 9 cars in the race:o:D jk

RLGfx 13-11-2007 05:06 PM

one thing you can garuantee with the b44 is that there'll be a lot of people who will carry spares just in case, and a mine of information regarding setups etc...

My opinion the 501x.:D

Iv owned a few 4wd cars, inc a yokomo, lazer zx5, bosscat, procat,egress,avante,trf501x, lazer zxr, optima mid to name a few over the years.

The car that i have broken least is the 501, The only things broken include the front shcok tower and shock shafts either bent or snapped. Not bad considering 4.5 sintered power and a slightly throttle mad thumb.

Vinny, the Yokomo was the car to have 10 years ago. I remember when dogfighters were the best to have, very expensive compared to the likes of what i sued to run and genreally used to win all the meetings that i used to attend too.

No one runs the yokomo anymore as its expensive and spares etc are not easily available from uk stockists like they are for other 4wd cars. Just out of curiosity do you race yours?

I dont remember saying it was slow, I just said from what i've seen its not a tough car as thats what the thread was about.

Out of the 501x's in my my club (3) only one has ever bent a shock shaft, there hasnt been any other breakages.

RLGfx 13-11-2007 07:53 PM

can i just point out vinny, 5 days ago you were asking whatis the best 4wd around as you're starting back up... exactly how much running have you done with the Yok BX?:eh?::confused::D

xx4-nutter 13-11-2007 08:08 PM

theres no strongest car out there... down to the driver really. somthing with small towers and chunky arms must be a start ?

the 501x has that ?

if u have one then u can find out 4 yuorself if u dont have one then theres no point 2 say much about about a top car and company:mad::mad::p:p

ashleyb4 13-11-2007 08:58 PM

have you driven the other cars to compare them to your yoke bx???

A

RLGfx 13-11-2007 09:01 PM

no, i haven't run one, i used to have yoks though, and the YZ10 was a great car at the time, but the MX4 (which I had, it was poo) and everything after (apparently) have just not been competitive in the UK.

I won't say they are bad quailty, I agree yokomo are superbly finished and look great... shame the BX just doesn't go too well (again, from what I've heard, not from personal experience) and isn't strong, which is after all what this thread is about! :rolleyes:;)








so how much have you run it then? :confused:

vinny20 13-11-2007 09:17 PM

build
 
it also depends on how u build it i have no problem and its been 1 week so far the car had hard impacts on it no probs and the diff was not a prob

You don't have to take OFFROAD litterly....stay on the green stuff dude, and don't hit hard boardings.

The pred is a racecar, not a robotwars-thing ;)

xx4-nutter 13-11-2007 09:35 PM

this is one thing that really annoys me about forums..

somone asks a question somone replys then other people rant and have a go at somone else..

Cooper 13-11-2007 09:42 PM

trust me try somethig like a xx4 or a b44 and you will soon find your BX to be slow and weak. I have two friends who both run the BX and they seem to break lots. and the cars dont seem to be that quick at all.
