This is going to be a very difficult discussion as your going to find it hard to find people who have driven both, on a range of surfaces, who don't have a tie to either car.

The two cars are very different to drive, the B44 being quite edgey and direct and the ZX5-SP being a much more neutral and docile car. Which you prefer depends on how you like a car to feel and your driving style.

As for winning there is little support in terms of a team for Kyosho electric off-road in Europe where as you will see drivers supported to one level or another with B44s at every event. On shere numbers the B44 will win more in Europe, also AE are willing to support the very best drivers in the style they have become acustomed which Kyosho don't seem to do in Europe .... again this means that the B44 is more likely to make it to the top step due to driver tallent (Schumy would have one GPs in a Red Bull ..... that sort of thing).
When you consider the USA and Japan you will find many supported drivers who are capable of showing the true potential of the Kyosho cars.


Personally I can not get on with any of the cars with the weight as far back as the B44, it just doesn't work for me at all.

My advice is to try and get a drive on a well set-up "average drivers" car for both chassis and make a judgement based on that.
My ZX5-SP is always available for people to try .... most people have liked it so far.
