Wow Metla, how can we have such opposing views? Yeah it's got plastic bits here and there, and yeah it's not got a slipper. But, its cheaper than an SBV2, it's also dare I say got more racing heritage. I've raced the standard car and it's certainly very good from the box. the plastic parts are all high quality (not like the usual Tamiya plastic).
I don't really know what you mean when you say cheap and nasty? What are you expecting for such money? there is simply no car that can compare for that money - but if there is I will happily get it and review it alongside.
I raced the car twice so far and the results speak for themselves. Even if you are pissed about it, give it a chance. I was disapointed to see the half-plastic diffs, but they have performed well so far through 2 race meetings. There has been no problem with the drivetrain other than the pinion falling off - which was my fault.
