it is to race on polished wood floor, and to bash about with.

it will have a brushless (in time)

4wd is generally easier all round, But 2wd is where you will learn more driving wise i would say with it only being rear wheel drive..

if you want somthing quick and looks awsome maybe the 4WD, Predator XRS from Xtreme ?



doesnt cost a bomb and if youre on polish floor sit the car nice a low and it will be ace

what are the differences between the XRS and the X10?

[ashleyb4]

If you want somehting that looks awful and is slow and has as much ride height as a touring car and breaks when you sneeze yes i agree with garry get a xrs.

IMO you would be much much much betteroff with 2wd in every way. Everyone knows the best looking 2wd out there is the xxx-cr and its also the best performing easy to drive and strong.

Have you ever owned a Pred Ash?

Or even seen one?

[rcluke]

is the pred XRS the same sort of spec as the ZX5 RTR ?

From my experience of driving with a 2wd on polished floor, it is not fun in any way...

Best get a cheap'ish 4wd buggy if your going to be on polished floor regularly. The B44, Hotbodies D4, or the Lazer ZX-5 SP would be the best options for you I think.

Ashley.. i see for once you didnt recomend a xx4. But offer maybe the worst most expensive 2wd on the market.

Please dont comment on the XRS like you have owned one. I really wouldnt say it was slow LOL, Luke there is a short video of an XRS here : http://video.aol.com/video-detail/tt...car/2554272685


The XRS has a few different features towards the X10. The rockers are make from plastic also the arms and chasis are made from plastic i beleive. all of the X10 parts will fit on this and some of the X11 upgrades too if you wanted to take it to the next level.

A B4 would be your best bet IMO, if you are sensible with your motor choice there's nothing hard about driving a 2wd on wood floor

2wd will be cheaper to buy, run and fix. Also there's less that can go wrong so they are more beginner friendly than a 4wd car would be.

How much experience do you have, and how much equipment do you have now or are you starting from scratch?
