Back to the RC10B4 ...
For those that run on carpet, what front tires are you using that are not aggressive enough to fluff the carpet, but still give good bite?

I have had both and did all the options on both and can tell you that the Losi car is no cheaper (actually costs more). So pick the Losi if you want to drive one, no one will say you shouldn't, just don't make silly comments

About the only argument you can make against the 4.1 is the cost of the upkeep IF you don't want slop in the car. I personally feel the slop makes the car more forgiving and easier to drive. Any other arguments that people pose are applicable to every car on the market and are 99% of the time just driver preference.
And the losi has its own set of things you will be looking to upgrade, the durango too.

and the losi buggy needs alum camber mount, .75 hex's, roll center blocks, kick plate, bulkhead, bleeder caps....... the base price AND the option parts are both higher.

It'll just be a matter of time till you're looking up TLR hop ups for that car too. RC is our hobby but a business for them. Whatever brand you run the money is in the parts not the kit.
Latest body I airbrushed for myself now mounted on my B4.1.
I've been pretty happy with just stock B4.1 set up and parts. Maybe I need to be more particular, but this chassis is pretty tough to begin with expecially compared to the previous one.
