Bang for the Buck!
That's why. There are a lot of people out there that don't want to burn four to five hundred dollars or more on a chassis alone. I happen to be one of them. I was checking this out but couldn't get enough info/get one plus spares quick enough so I went with the XI Sport. Seriously though, for the cost of a T4 new I got my car, all spare suspension parts like arms, hubs, knuckles etc. Plus I bought the aluminum steering kit, front and rear bulkhead, arm mounts, carbon shock towers, and an aluminum floating servo mount. That's just the start, I also bought a brand new D3.5 Maxzilla, a new lowpro servo, and two sets of tires for race day. I aready had batteries but I could have gotten two 4000 mah 50C packs and still prob had money to spare on just the kit price of a T4. What else is there, Heck if you want to compare it to a 417wx I could have bought a new Reventon Pro, and a name brand 2.4GHz receiver for the car and still been under the price for the kit alone. I know people will say yeah, but the quality is better and maybe there right. Idk but this new Sakura is a really nice car, and I'm thinking about getting a SpecR S1 just to compare the two can see which one is better for the price. See I can do that with cars in this price range without selling a kidney

I bought one. Love it.
The build is good.
It drives a lot like my VBC wildfire.
For it's price, I'd choose this any day. I could get two of these and still costs less than my VBC.
Compared to my T3, on the straight, it's not as stable. But it turns a lot better.
For a guy like me who doesn't have much time to build kits, this kit is a real winner.
Also, this car is much more durable than S1.

Hello, if you're interested, I made a spanish review in my website:
http://www.rcelectrico.es/analisis-d...l-nuevo-rgt-r2
In the next days I'll put more information, details and upgrades on the car.
The performance was really better than expected, a little slower than my VBC with an standard setup and out-the-box car being 23.722 with the VBC and 23.823 seconds with that RGT R2 on my first run.
Waiting for the 3º rear suspension mount excentric bushing to try a best setup for asphalt racing.
Regards

RGT at USVTA Southern Nats
The car preformed well at this year's USVTA race In Nashville.
I ran the car basically box stock with different oil in the shocks and raised roll centers in the rear at the arm mounts.
I was able to qualify in the 6th position and finished 7th overall after some tough luck in A1/A2. I think we could have had a 5th overall finish if it hadn't been for the first 2 mains.
