The car is durable and receptive to mistakes. The only problem is that the car sits kind of low. ON a medium jump it seems to bottom out. The 18 engine seems to be a little temperamental when tuning. It engages the clutch when on idle. For the most part it is a good buggy, well worth the money. I think with a few minor upgrades I can do good in the beginners races
Like I said before I am new to RC's and have only ran about 25 tanks on my car.
After I broke the engine in, I ran the car on a small track at a hobby shop in Montclair, CA. The car handles good and I only have a few complaints. I originally was going to get a Redcat Shockwave and am glad that I went with this buggy instead. Nothing that I cannot fix with a few upgrades. For the beginners or the people who just want a car to bash on this one is for you.
My only question is where can I find the 2.0 clear body ? I can only find the body for the DBX. I prefer the body style with this car.
