Smile New Car?

I currently have a Bandit elctric powered buggy by traxxas. Lets just say its slow, bad controls and is falling apart. i spend more time fixing then driving. i dont want the B4 due to the fact that the person who i race with the most has a b4 and that would be mean to copy. should i go for a gas, or stay electric plz give me your suggestions

I personally like electric. A lot easier to maintain, less expensive, and doesnt upset the neighbors.

Re: New Car?

Cleaning after every time you run it, and teardown and rebuild. Minute adjustments that take forever. When one thing goes wrong, everything goes wrong. So on and so forth.

Well, if the person you race most with has a B4 I would stick with something in the same class (1/10 electric buggy) since it wouldn't be any fun and or fair racing him with something like a Jato (1/10 nitro stadium truck). There's also nothing mean about getting the same car you buddy has, especially if it's a B4.
