I still like my R2 over my R3... sure the R3 is a bit more stiff...but the strenght of the sparkle chassis is something that just plane not there thats why most of the ALEXfactory guys are still using the R2 Xenon and R2 PAL version....but ALEX Japan will be releasing the newer lot of R3`s with the standard Carbon fiber here around june time ...and that should be a step in the right direction.... but untill that time comes I`ll still use my R2....(or unless BMI gets hot on that 3mm chassis )

Both both cars are VERY WELL BALANCED.. just the R3 has a few more chassis tuning options
