I ran the 2050 for 16 months. 18 or 19 on indoor tracks and 19 or 20 on outdoor tracks. Just picked up a 1900 (since I mainly run on indoor tracks) and wished I'd made the switch a long time ago. At 19/46 with the 1900, I'm turning the same lap times I did with the 2050 at 18/46 or 19/46....But the buggy is way easier to drive, the temps are cooler, and I think I can shave some tenths off my lap times with some more practice.
