Default Bmax 2mr V3 any good for indoors carpet & outdoor astro?

hi folks.
Choosing new car for indoor carpet race. Wondering Bmax 2mr v3 any good? Other manufacturers claims some details about chassis +8mm, saw online some even +11mm longer. However yokomo doesnt says about that at all. Is it +8mm by default or just shorter chasssis? What upgrades requires v3 to be competitive? how easy to get spares and parts lifespan any good? much appreciated

Great car. Very strong and reliable. Works great in high grip surfaces.

Not sure about the length of it. I thought they were all the same.

Not sure where you live but parts shouldn't be a problem as it's a very popular car.

I'd go for it if I were you.

Regards

David

+8mm or + 11mm are for new chassis' that are already longer than that brand "kit" chassis, e.g. durango 210 or AE b4.1 worlds.

I'd need to refer back to websites/manuals to find exact wheelbase measurements of other cars compared with the Bmax2 MR kit, but I've never thought "oh i really need that extra +8mm chassis". The car just works and works well on low traction, medium and high traction tracks.

Another feature of all the BMAX2 MR cars is the ability to build them as mid or rear motor. I have one of each for the different tracks I run at, but I like to have a spare car ready to go, rather than swapping all the time.

It's a great car.
