Which 4WD buggy
 

I cuerrently have xxx4 and was looking to upgrade to a newer buggy. I heard the b44 has alot of breakages. I was thinking of getting a zx5 and upgrading it to carbon. Should i wait for some new buggies or get a zx-5, b44 or bj4?

theres always the x5s made by xfactory which i may ad that im selling 2 in the forsale section;) cheap

Why change xx4 is still one of the best around the b44 breaks the zx5 is poo im not going to go there xx4 rules

Wow, Youre misled. If you can't drive, Any 4wd buggy is going to break. I have had a B44 for about three months now and the only thing i've broken is a front arm, which i can completely admit was my fault. Took the chicane too tight and got hung up on the middle pvc pipe.

Tamiya TRF-501X is a great car. Parts are hard to find in stock in your local shop so you will have to invest a little in parts from across the pond. But it is easy to drive and doesn't mind being over driven. It is pricey but it is a very strong car. It is hopped up when you buy it.
If you want a car where you can find the parts on the wall get a B44.
Good luck with what ever you buy.:thumbsup:

I'd have to take issue with the ZX5 statement. Have you actually driven one Ash? I mean for a whole meeting, not just one lap on a mates in practice?
I took it to 4th at the F3's the other year, and the event was won by a ZX5, so go figure?
It's strong, cheap for spares, and a nice neutral handling car with plenty of forgiveness.

Turn it into an SP version and I honestly believe the ZX5 is world class ... and so does everybody who has driven mine!

The driver just needs to get some more practice ... :D

Dont get a xx4 unless you can line your pockets with shock towers and crap wishbones ;)
And yes i do drive one :lol:

but they dont break if you dont crash

Wanna bet? Someone on the weekend broke a brand new shock tower without even rolling the car once.
I broke a front one without a crash.
They are being poorly/cheaply made.

convert it to a x5
you'll never look back

dosnt the x5 use the same towers?

southwell you bell you know what to do with the towers Kev shoowed you.

If broke on the camber link pick up points, exactly the same as it did at the f3's, the two holes just fell apart.

Thats gay, you might need dan greenwood carbon plates then.

Try pre-tapping the holes with the Losi tapping screw, or even better a 4-40 tap available from Nortech ;)

I already do.
The last one i had actually already had one outer hole broken apart already....:thumbdown:

just admit it Southwell !!! your an animal ... :thumbsup:;)
