Durango DEX210 or Schumacher SV2

[thorny97]

Afternoon Everyone

I currently race 1/8th nitro all year round, but in the winter months i also race my schumacher sx3 at worksop. This year i have decided to venture into the world of 2w drive. So here's my question do i have either the durango or the schumacher? Please bear in mind that i want a car thats cheap to run and change parts if i have a crash, which with my sx3 was sometimes very frequent. The car must be easy to set up espeically at worksop. it took me 3 visits to the track before i was happy with the SX3

What hop ups am i likely to need?

which car is the best to go for?

Thank you for your help

if you're happy with the sx3 and want to stick with Schumacher cars get a Cougar SV2. See if you could have a few laps with someone elses if their kind enough to see how you like it

Schumacher all the way, great car very strong, spares readily available, and great back up from schuy direct

what hop ups if any are needed for the schumacher and which of the cougars do you have, bearing in mind i will mainly run at the indoor surface of worksop and maybe (and its a small maybe) on some astro tracks

I would go for a sv2 i have to say its the most robust car i have driven the only thing that has broke on mine is the rear bumper that holds the undertray on.Where the 210s break the rear tower and the ball diff seems to be a pig to get right.
Schumacher diffs are awsome only cleaned it and relubed it once since built as you have a sx3 you will have springs already

the only upgrade on the 210 i would get is the gear diff and new ball cups. other than that i have not had a problem. great car for the money
