Don't get me wrong, I like Ansmann / Team C cars and I think the mad rat is well designed (even if those designs were 'borrowed') but for £180 you can get a proven car that needs a bit of upgrading, or spend a bit more and get a full spec competition car. X4-Pro may be very good, but new designs take a while to iron out the faults (Mad Rat shock mounts / T pieces etc) and I doubt you'll find many spares available track side.
i must say in a year of racing the xpro i have never rounded a single screw on the whole car all you need is a good quality driver and to make sure all the mud/dirt is out the hex before unscrewing it and you wont have an issue i will be putting TI ballstuds in the ali parts as i dont want one breaking off in the hole but other than that the cars fixings are much better than the bmax philips screws than you can ever get tight and round off all the time
