I am currently running a Schumacher Cat SX2. I love the car, the build, the durability, etc. I am, however, the lone Schumacher at the track, no tuning support, no parts support (have to order from A-Main) and still learning to drive the car with a 13.5 without breaking parts, so it is starting to take its toll.

I am considering switching over to a B44.1 for the parts support and tunning support from other drivers. I am a little concerned about a few things:

1) Durability issues with the B44.1...will I be breaking a lot more parts as I continue to learn to drive.

2) Driveability of the B44.1 vs the Cat, will I notice a huge difference? (I am not pushing the Cat to the limit yet, so maybe the switch now would be easier than if I were to get really good with it and switch later)

FYI, the track I drive on is indoor med-high bite clay.

I am looking for some opinions and guideance. I figured I might get a little more unbiased help here than on the Cat thread.
