+1 for those red dynamites. they lasted and they were cheap. im disappointed to hear that about the prolines, i just ordered a few of them.

I have used the MIP (aka Thorp) wrenchs when I started 20 years ago and am still partial to them. I like the plastic Vaco handles and tip quality is on par with if not the best.
We have an O'Donnell sponsored driver at our track that has a full compliment of OD's wrenches and those are real nice if you like the snap-on ergonomic style of handle.

I recently bought a new set of hex wrenches made by proline. I am not happy with them. One tip already stripped and one tip bent. They are less than a month old. I used Team Magic wrenches before that and they were great but they are very hard to find. I was thinking about buying a Hudy set it is very complete and I know they should be top notch, I just don't want to blow another hundred bucks on inferior products. So who is using what and how do they hold up. Thanks for the input.

best are tools from a company that actually specializes in making tools 
and you dont have to pay the extra for RC company branded tools that lack in ergonomics and quality.
i prefer WERA tools however i got few Hudy protools (those with plastic handle), some EDS and few other, but I am slowly getting all wera stuff

2 yrs. ago I purchased the Losi hex and socket wrenches & have had great luck with them. They have a alluminum handle so they have a nice solid feel to them. They are a good quality. I wrench on 3 rc's doing constant maintenance and they have held up with out flaw. I did just recently replace the tip on my 2.0 mm, but it seems to be the 1 that gets used 90% of the time.
