Off the bat I'm a bit weary of doing with the DEX410, due to the durability of Durango in general. It seems like a great car besides how fragile it can be. I realize this may be impacted by driver style, but seems that out on the track, even the best drivers have more parts break on the Durango than any of the of other top brands.

The AE and Kyosho also seem top notch. However they seem a bit dated a might be due for a update soon, so don't want to jump into something that will soon be refreshed.

The other major factor that I'm waiting on is to see what Losi TLR brings out to refresh the greatly outdated XXX. I own a 22B and love the darn thing. Been hearing rumors that TLR is designing a 4wd based on the 22 design.

Any input on these buggies is greatly appreciated! :tire::sneaky:

Even though we dont have the classes for them here I plan on picking one up within the next couple of months. These look too fun.

Updates are great but I want to compete at the highest level I can and with the most support and parts pricing. If I break my 44 I just walk to the counter buy it and continue my quest for 1st with out stocking 3 kits to keep parts on hand. If you buy the 44 its as simple as build it and race it. Nothing wears out to fast and its a serious threat to any of the competing kits. Matter of fact the comp is chasing it.
If you can hit the track and find each kit and ask to drive it. Don't listen to me or anyone else we all bought the best kit out there...LOL Driving one of each will help but I would say a fool and his money soon part if you don't run the 44. Its all the kits and more in one. I have seen tested and driven them all. I don't have much time with the Kyosho but they are the most fragile.

Was anyone here at the Bigfoot Race @ Mike's Hobby Shop running the 44.1? If so, what was your setup and where did you place.

Thanks.

Has anyone used a front anti-roll bar?
and if so...
What was the track conditions like when it was beneficial?

Thanks in advance.

Ooh ooh me pick me. My hand is up. Makes it push and land funny off camber. Its a little unstable on hard landings.
So it sux on a technical layout but is best on high bite smooth and flowing jump tracks. I had to run 22mm ride height to get it to roll in the corners.

Btw it did launch off jumps higher for me. It may just get you to the flat on that table top.
