I'd say the FS2 looks the more serious bit of kit, with its nice blue bits and graphite stuff, but its also more delicate than the Bmax. Not just more fragile, also more sensitive to the wrong or right setup.
The Bmax is very much a club racers car - tough and uncomplicated. The Lazer is more a precision tool.

I prefer the Bmax cos I'd just break a Lazer.

ive had both and they are both very good i run the fs now and it is truely a excelent piece of kit as for performance i would say go with what the majority race but if your like me dont ive got the only fs at our club swamped by rangos and tamiya none of them realy fast enough.

bad points on cars

b max front shock tower easy fix rc xtream 5mm towers.

gear boxes can feel tight from new they do free Quality control could be better.

FS again shock towers easy fix again three racing, rc xtream ones on the way.

price of parts.

im not going to list good points as they are pretty much comparible.
