Egay will be buying a B4 also (or play with his old B3). From what I have
been hearing, there will be a lot of people buying 1/10 offroad....

Both 2WD and 4WD are fun...but i kinda like 4WD more cos it's more stable at higher speed and it corners a lot better than 2WD..in 1/10 EP offroad,4WD buggy racing is really an innovative class..just look at the different brands..every company has got a different design and concept..it's really an interesting class cos no two 4WD buggies are alike.

Finally completed my RC18T including bodyshell. Right now the speed is fast enough to catch up with a 1:1 car on New Upper Changi road. Pretty fast and still only on 6 GP1100s. BTW anybody know where to get these batteries locally (GP 1100)? Thanks!!!

I and Monico went to Farmway to run our EP 2WD, 1/8 buggy, Mini Inferno and MiniZilla yesterday. We are really impressed with the track, the layout was nice and the place was kept very tidy. Well done to those who built the track there.

Anyway where are all those guys talking about running EP buggy? We never see any EP buggy players there yesterday.

Believe me, I was desperate to go, but illness kept me home. Will REALLY try to go in the next few days. Hopefully, better drivers there will help me with some questions.

Question: Those who've got the XXX-BK2, do you have a problem executing tight turns? Mine just doesn't seem to want to turn (wide turning radius, keeps wanting to go straight). Not like my RC10T4.

Anyway, check this out:

http://www.modelrectifier.com/produc...=RC%20Vehicles

Apparently, there's a newer version, the SB Sport SE. Those of you with R/C CAR Magazine will have some idea of what it is. Cool. Cheap. I WANT!!!

It's prettier than the TL XXX-4 G+.

(At the moment, I admit to be hooked by the GP Team Losi XXX-NT AD2)

nightbreed: I am also having the same problem with my Ultima, my buggy cannot turn very tight, dun know if it's the traction or the car.

it may seem that your diff is to tight, its like having a locked diff behind hence a tendency to push.
