Well i am a little disappointed to say at least. I expected bigger changes, a lot of plastic included in the standard version as well. K will make US spending big money for all the options again... i like the RB7 wing stay, the chassis stiffener look to be copied from Xray and the other changes are really minor. Well, at least gear diffs as standard, was about time! I don’t get it why Japanese manufacturers always seem to be a bit slow to adapt to current technical standards, way worse than K was Tamiya when they still had their TRF off-road program. Let alone Yokomo who seem to be fast and up to date. |
Waiting to see if this buggy approaches $600 mark! |

I like the changes most I have done. I have been running gull wing arms on one of mine with AE hub carrier and knuckles and with gear difs and slipper is the only way to go would of like to seen updated ballcups and balls so you don't have to drill or replace them with lundsford but that's trivial would of liked to see provisions for motor fan mounting for the stock classes but it should be a step in the right direction

First run with my ZX7 was so so. Car was way too edgy and it was hard for me to run consistent lines on a high traction carpet. My biggest issue was the loud drive terrain. This thing sounds like a meat grinder going down the track |
