Am I allowed to be the exception to the rule? my Bmax2 Worlds suffered a broken front shock tower, although it didn't seem to affect my driving or lap times.
Early summer when the missing bearing came to light in my YZ2 (Thanks Neal for identifying and sorting), I ran one round with my spare BMax and at end of heat when checking car over I noticed it had a broken tower. Odd because I hadn't crashed anywhere, but hey ho
That said, I think the Yokes are bombproof and certainly exceed the B44.1 I ran for a few months and never made it to the end of a heat with, and my Team C which also seemed to get through front wishbones at a rate until I discovered the higher carbon content versions.
I don't think I will get a YZ4 simply as I never seemed to get time / chance to run my BMax4iii so suspect the same will apply with any 4WD, that said, I'd rather get a high spec "straight from box" - the YZ2 was perfect - it felt like the right balance between plastic / carbon / alloy.
