Default Are people still happy with there 2wd choices - losi 22, Durango ,cougar and x2c

Im curious just to see how people are finding there latest 2wd purchases.

So far I've seen the losi 22's not appear to flavour of the month anymore and they often appear for sale and for a cheap price. Mid motor seems most popular but I personally don't like the idea of having to buy a stubby lipo to fit properly.

Durango 22's seem popular and seem to hold there money. Although if I'm being honest, around the track they don't look as stable as say an x6 and seem a bit twitchy over the bumps. ( I am however interested in buying one ).

Cougar sv's . Had one myself but sold before I used it. As far as I am aware the reliability issues seem to be sorted by buying decent bearings from new. Still popular at racing and a price drop on the s1' seems a good move by Schumacher .

X2c , from what I read they are well liked and loved and appear to be getting a very good team together in the uk. I can see this being the car to beat and spares should be cheaper than the opposition. It's the little things that I don't like using e clips etc and overall ruggedness of materials that give the impression of a cheaper car ( ie materials used ). Again I ca see myself buying one to try as I've had a few madrats and magnums for messing around with.

So that's my opinion, however I'd love to know what cars you are running now and indeed if you have swapped from one brand to another and the reasons behind this.

And lastly to throw a spanner in the works, has anyone movede back to older technology such as losi cr/ b4 or the not so old x6 ha ha ( I still love the x6 lol ).

Fire away and I reckon it should be interesting to hear everyone's opinions.
