I have raced one, and it was the SB-sport, so very basic (although mine was heavily modified), the car was good initially and an improvement over the Yokomo MR4BC Special which i had before it, easy to work on etc. But it wasn't long before I got very frustrated in not being competitive due to the cars limits - which were brought on by very flexible plastic, poor ratio for fast modified motors (2.75:1), twisty chassis and big overhang at front bulkhead.
People tell me the newer cars are far better. But when I look I just see the same flexible plastic wishbones and hubs, flexible steering arms, flexible chassis, big overhang (compare it with the XX4 where the chassis sweaps up around the diff so not to dig in to the ground - this makes a big difference).
Granted, I could be wrong now although id need a lot of convincing personally, and no car is perfect anyway, but do collect your own information by asking when you go to Eden Park, ask Dom when you ring DC racing - he is honest, and will have recommendations too.
