it's as competitive as any other 4wd. cheap to buy, spares are dirt cheap also. make sure you shim the diff gears correctly and the drivetrain is pretty bullet proof.

you won't be disappointed

I have 2 of them and love them. You have to spend a bit of time getting it setup right and then it's just about practise. I break a lot of stuff (mostly cheap C hubs on the front) but I think it's probably more to do with the fact that my Mamba 7700 motor is way too fast for my driving ability.

get one. the only people who say the zx5 is weak are the people who have never owned one before or people who dont know when to let off the throttle.

it does need a couple of hopups but after that its as fast and strong as anything.
