Hmm, never thought of that, I should try to see if I can get discounts if I promise to not mess up the room

We just got a brand new track out here, it's having the first race tomorrow, time to get a 2wd buggy Off-Road should be a nice change..

If it's 1/8 buggy I'd go with Kyosho, they have the nicest quality materials.

KY has something to say about the quality of the chassis on his MP7.5 Sport....He reckons it's not even 6061......but 2xxx series alloy!!!!

However, going by other parts...they should be very good quality.

Actually I was looking at some 2WD trucks running last Saturday....they look really cool. For a bumpy, rough track what would be better....buggy or Truck?. My instinct tell me truck would be more fun....but Buggy should ultimately be faster than truck??
