Which 4WD buggy

[hummer11]

I cuerrently have xxx4 and was looking to upgrade to a newer buggy. I heard the b44 has alot of breakages. I was thinking of getting a zx5 and upgrading it to carbon. Should i wait for some new buggies or get a zx-5, b44 or bj4?

Wow, Youre misled. If you can't drive, Any 4wd buggy is going to break. I have had a B44 for about three months now and the only thing i've broken is a front arm, which i can completely admit was my fault. Took the chicane too tight and got hung up on the middle pvc pipe.

Tamiya TRF-501X is a great car. Parts are hard to find in stock in your local shop so you will have to invest a little in parts from across the pond. But it is easy to drive and doesn't mind being over driven. It is pricey but it is a very strong car. It is hopped up when you buy it.
If you want a car where you can find the parts on the wall get a B44.
Good luck with what ever you buy.

I'd have to take issue with the ZX5 statement. Have you actually driven one Ash? I mean for a whole meeting, not just one lap on a mates in practice?
I took it to 4th at the F3's the other year, and the event was won by a ZX5, so go figure?
It's strong, cheap for spares, and a nice neutral handling car with plenty of forgiveness.

Turn it into an SP version and I honestly believe the ZX5 is world class ... and so does everybody who has driven mine!

The driver just needs to get some more practice ...

Dont get a xx4 unless you can line your pockets with shock towers and crap wishbones
And yes i do drive one

[bigred5765]

but they dont break if you dont crash

[Southwell]

Wanna bet? Someone on the weekend broke a brand new shock tower without even rolling the car once.
I broke a front one without a crash.
They are being poorly/cheaply made.

convert it to a x5
you'll never look back

[millzy]

dosnt the x5 use the same towers?

southwell you bell you know what to do with the towers Kev shoowed you.

[Southwell]

If broke on the camber link pick up points, exactly the same as it did at the f3's, the two holes just fell apart.

[millzy]

Thats gay, you might need dan greenwood carbon plates then.

[Cockerill]

Try pre-tapping the holes with the Losi tapping screw, or even better a 4-40 tap available from Nortech

[Southwell]

I already do.
The last one i had actually already had one outer hole broken apart already....

[Wraggy]

just admit it Southwell !!! your an animal ...
