The HotBodies really intrigues me right now - that's the one I'd personally go for despite the mockery of my friends who say it looks ugly - yes, it's certainly ODD and has suspension seemingly made of rubber, but looking at Richard Lowe's last weekend with the AVID chassis on there, oh, I need it. NEED IT. No idea what the support is like or the quality, it's just mechanically yummy.

Get one Jimmy. Really happy with mine. i have extended the chassis by 16mm which transforms the car,makes it so much easier to drive. I wanted it to drive the same as my DARC durango,which in extending the chassis its pretty much there.
Just got another one for my son who wanted a 4wd.
Spare wise they are pretty much bullet proof.
Yes the arms are pretty soft,but can be suited to any track conditions.I have three versions,plastic inserts,c/f inserts and araldite filled. literally five minutes to change to suit the track you are racing at.
