I may do some racing, but whatever I pick will be mostly for enjoying on a home built track I will build in my backyard. I must admit, I like the looks of the buggy better, but if the truggy truly is easier to drive, that may be an advantage, as I will most likely teach my kids to drive. How much faster is the buggy?
Acually, in my experience buggies are more durable than truggies. Longer a-arm w/ bigger, heavier tires hanging off them can cause a breaking issue. Truggies do drive easier, and lately have been posting faster times at many races, especially if the track is rough.
