Might actually be cheaper to buy an L4 in the first place!!
I didn't know the wishbones were a weak point, I thought they were just AE ones. Despite my best efforts I haven't been able to break an AE wishbone, just T-bars as usual.
Or... you could get a Calandra and avoid T-bars altogether, but after owning an L4 (and L3) and Calandra (x3), I would never go back from anything other than the L4. Could never get the Calandra to handle like the L4.
ALTHOUGH! The BMI L-bar car looks quite snazzy.
What were we talking about?
IMHO, you cannot go wrong with an L4, it's like the 12th scale version of the Losi XX4, as it's easy to set up and goes well everywhere. (so i'm told, I last had a XX4 about 5 years ago).
