SX3 or DEX410???

[The Chef]

been waiting for the SX3 to come out for ages now and had a good look at the Durango yesterday and was well impressed by the simplicity and the nice alloy bits that come as stock in the kit.

Just after some opinion's. I had a good look at Trishes SX3 at Farnham and in comparison it looks bloody complicated.

What do you reckon, what do you guys think that run durangos? Obviously I can't get a straight answer on the cat yet as it is only team drivers have them.


What do you reckon?

I've left the poll anonymous. So you Schumacher drivers can have an honest opinion too

I've been running a SX2 for a while and it's a very nice car but recently bought a modded DEX410R and it's a better car for me, very easy to maintain once you build it right , lots of grip and so far with my crappy driving it seems I could push the car more.
Looks more durable too even if you still can break it like any car, I found the cat a bit too over complicated where the Durango is rather simple yet very well thought.

I have to admit the SX3 look nice, with issues like melting spurs resolved and a better weight distribution but even if I was skeptical about CVD/gear diff I now understand why Durango choose this kind of transmission and really like it's efficiency.

410 for me !

410 all the way.
Its more established and the 410R looks to be a better car than the s1 version of the cat. And with only a few parts like diff rings, ballcups and carbon shock towers is good enough to compete at the highest lvl. I'm currently saving for one myself as after looking at different 4wd cars the durango seems the best of the bunch. B44's are easy to drive and run but i'm not a fan of associated cars as i've had one before.

I Dont think that the cat is very complicated but there is of course belts. Simple to work on and a smooth car. Its the only british car i would recomend

Well, I'm obviously team driver and I'm supposed to be biased. I got my SX3 this week and ran it for first time today at our nationals during practice in the morning. I was blown away with way it handled track. I decided to race that car despite I had my proven, race prepared SX2. I also must note that I used CF chassis on our dirt track because I was dumb enough to forget to order it with car . Also considering that there weren't any setups for dirt yet available for me to test - it was really amazing what car was able to pull out - now I wonder what that car can do after few setup sessions on track.

To Rango. I did try it few times from my friends at club and I admit that it's very agile car, but it simply doesn't suit me. I'm belt drivetrain guy for too long time.

I've got my SX3 and S1 chassis on order. Is most of the team going for pro kit but with S1 chassis?
