I'm afraid my passion at the moment is Short Course, not many tracks run these yet, so wanted something I could play around with when sc not running
If budget was not an option i think I'd go for a 22, but, because of wife, £200 is about the limit (if I'm lucky)
Mad Monkey looked like a good bet (and has great reviews) but, as stated above, the B4 has a very good track record............better than mine will ever be
As everyone says.....its the driver that wins the race, I kinda have no experience, I will be the limiting factor I whatever combo I get
Of course I appreciate an element of bias toward the mm here and i think it is great, just, only really can budget for one buggy so...........I drifted a little off topic - sorry

My intent was not to insult the ansmann or budget racing, and my response was only to the other misguided chap that was suggesting the 4.1 was inferior.
I do understand your intent on keeping within your budget, and the wife off your back, and there are many hk-produced budget BL systems that should suit your needs - and, unless there's a mad rush to get going, since you mentioned the 22 and the B4.1 as options, maybe do some looking around at the "used market" and even take out an ad in the "wanted" section of the forum here (there's a reason the better known makes win all the races, and it's not because they're inferior - you stick sebastian vettle in a trash lorry, and it's still going to go around the track like a garbage truck). If you can't find a deal on one, then by all means grab yourself a MM as it should suit your needs.
Good luck, and have fun
