I picked this buggy up for fun and will be running it on a 1/10 scale SC track just for fun. I doubt I would be able to take advantage of the "better" engine in any way.

I can pick up a new Dynamite Platinum .21 for $110 thats pretty dang cheap verses the $240 plus shipping for the works. I could use the extra $$ to try a pipe or 2 or......other improvements to the buggy.

So I must say for now........money is the determining factor much more so than quality or power.......I am going with the Dynamite to save some cash........and hope that a Nitro class will open up in the future and I can get a little more serious.

Thanks again for all the responses
Makes perfect sense. If all that you are looking for is an engine to play around with then the Dynamite at $110 (take a look at the Novarossi 21BF engine also!) at those price points are almost unbeatable and will give you a lot of fun. Good luck and enjoy the hobby!

Ron
