IMHO the MRage is fun for bashing around with maybe a 21T at best in a small course. I still run silver can and I think it's a good balance what the chassis can endure.
Cheers for the advice. I will look into it. Certainly the TOP R Sabre looks a well made car. I'm not keen on belt drive though. I'd also like to keep my whole setup under £200 to start with. I'll continue to read around it and see how it goes. I did find a vid of someone in US hitting 112mph (could have been kph, I'm suspicious) with a lightly moded m.rage haha. Slightly mad really as don't think it will last long!
