Klein or Customworks??? That is the question?

I'm running a GSX and lovin it. The Klein is also a highly rated car. You might check in your area as far as parts availability. It's usually better to go with the product that is easier to get parts for. You might also check out the track your wanting to run at and see which cars are running up front. That could also influence you which way you want to go. Good luck!!

A loaded question...Klein and CW ??? I have campaigned two Electric CW Sprints for over 3 years now. If I was to start racing Nitro Sprints I would go with Klein. This is what I have observed first hand that makes Klein a better choice over CW. IMO:
Dennis supports his team and his cars like a mother hen. Parts are readily available, at your LHS or online. He and his team drivers are truly into helping you out trackside. BTW, the R&D Driver races in your area. The cars appear to be easily to set-up and race on any surface. Cars are made of better materials.
However, there are several other options!

which one
Ive been thinking about the same thing. I hear so much about both cars and Im having a hard time deciding. I want something reliable and competitive at the same time. There both about the same price but the CW car has a full clutch set to complete the car. If you add that price into the Klein car it makes it more expensive. Hard to decide.............

If the track is pavement smooth the CW is a good car, if however you run on a real dirt track that changes every heat give the Klein a good look, but if you are looking for the best bang for the buck look at the bullet proof car it is darn near indistructable I have seen one put the nose of the car through a piece of 1/2 inch plywood and be thrown back out on the track and finish, neither of the other two will do that, one will break (CW) the other will fold up (Klein) Just my opinion but I think the BP is much easier to set up and handles more neutral. iIf you can talk Fischer into giving you his set up for the CW it is wicked fast, like wise with the Klein but Cris Cramer is the man when it comes to setting one up.

just my type of topic! IMO I ran a the new GBX cars and was not overly impressed. I'm not saying they are not good cars,because CW has proven to be national Champions. BUT!!!! I drove a KLEIN and never looked back! It is very tunable for loose tracks and even hard packed clay like Bakersfield! I have hit a concreate barrier head on and did some damage as you would to any car, but the funny thing is it didn't break any parts! Dennis re-designed the Menace for 2005 and it is a great car. very strong and can hold it's own in speed! Dennise and myself finished 2nd & 3rd in the electric class at the Bakersfield DODC race, with the exceptoin of the winner of the race we beat a field of CW direct drive cars. so I say Klein is the way to go!!!

The BP car is a conversion for the losi. I think you will like the Klein car. It is very easy to work on and responds to changes quite well. If you have any questions about set-ups let me know or Dennis. We would be glad to help.
