I watched an X-ray BoB that looked much faster through sharp turns and it flew nicely. I noticed that a D8 was quick also, and slid predictably but didn't jump as well.

I'm looking for a new kit soon. Being able to point the car in the right direction comes 1st on my want list. Every fast car I've driven so far spent very little time at full rack(steering). And could oversteer on demand. My Rc8 is nice and forgiveing, I don't need two cars with the same personality though.


So lets see if I've got this right, ordered most aggressive to least( on average)

Losi 2.0
Xray Bob (I might get one of these)
Hotbodies D8 ( Or one of these)
Mugen Thingy
Kyosho MP9
AE RC8
Jammin
Hobao
Odonnell

What say the hive mind?
As always, depending on setup, but for aggressive/lots of steering...:

Xray XB808
Losi 2.0
Mugen MBX6

I've driven them all now, and I would recommend those top picks in order.

Just my .5 cents..
