Default which 4wd kit?

After today, and playing with a 4wd, I found the lack of carpet in some places pretty awkward, so i was thinking of stipping the b4.1 of all its electrics and selling it with all the spares and extras i have accumilated and buying a 4wd roller, the sale should easily cover funds for a decent roller.

what do you guys think? am i ready for 4wd yet? and if so what do you suggest? b44? bmax? lazer? dont say durango

All cars have there good and bad points,It's down to what you want.
I run a Durango I'm crap at racing but the car can withstand a big crash(99%off the time).Plus any small setup changes do make a difference.
And like any car if built properly you won't have any problems.The r version only needs a front brace to make it bomb proof.
Hope this helps.

Have a look into the b44 as you can pick one up of the bay for about £100, most shops stock spares and they are very easy to set up and drive plus they are great strong cars.

The durango looks a great piece of kit, b44 was another option due to running a b4.1, been also advised on getting a bmax4 but looks like theres to much plastic.

There are others but for build, durability and looks the durango ticks all the boxes

Sounds to me as if you have already made your mind up on the Durango
