well the SP2 seems to be very stable. The B4 was good.

I like the Durango for his versatility. But what about quality...

If I had the choice I would go with the Durango...

But on the other hand those kyosho big bores are smooth!

Whoever said to get what is supported at your track/hobby shop is right on. You don't appreciate the convenience until you really need it. My track is awesome and has a great hobby shop in it which stocks parts for a lot of cars, so I'm lucky enough to have a choice. That being said, I'm a Durango guy. Change the ball cups (which, personally I haven't had an issue with yet, but I hear they aren't the best) and its the best thing out there. Losi stability, Associated value for parts price, and by far the most tunable. A month from now when everyone gets the set up dialed, everyone will be sick of getting beat by them. Get what you like the best, but keep some of those "behind the scenes" things in mind.

ya know i have had ALOT of rc equipment you cant beat kyosho for durability hands down and they handel well. AE very fast easy to drive hard to drive fast if that makes sence. LOSI good all around. My vote is kyosho i hate fixing sloppy parts on AE and LOSI but i like em all. More money up front with kyosho but you will save in the end with less maintness

I'm assuming you are talking about RC Madness? Does he stock all the usual parts that break? I'm considering either the DEX210 or the TLR22.

Do folks here still think DEX210 over the TLR22? From all I'm reading, it just seems like the DEX210 is better designed. But the TLR22 will have better parts availability. Assuming that I get the DEX210, I would "stock up" on all breakables just in case to take care of the TLR22 parts advantage.
