I can't believe how good these buggy's are. I bought mine about 3 months ago. I have done 3 race meets and broken nothing!! They are sooo strong and are fantastically competitive. I had never driven a buggy until i got mine. After 2 race meets i am overall 1st
By 1 point!!
I would like to hear a few stories on these buggy's people. So C'mon here and post post post!! And also Pics would be fantastic!!!

I've had mine for about a year now. I have raced it countless amount of times
at atleast five different tracks without breaking a single part. Could you ask
for more?

Hard to tell, what's the surface, and what do you prefer?
Stock is 5-7-2 I believe, if you want more on power steering try 7-7-2. Increase weight in the rear if the surface is loose.
Mine is setup for snow and ice, I currently run 5-5-5, seems ok, quite neutral.
Combined with 30 front susp with progressive soft springs and 25 rear with long soft springs.
On dry track I've been happy with 5-7-2, stock springs and 40-35 damper oil. This is quite safe to start with.
My MBX5 - prospec - updated to R+

Last pic also shows my brother trying to break his old X1CRT-rtr.
Setups I've told works on this track, cant't promise same results on yours
