Both cars have there ups and downs. But its the driver who counts, I agree with overrev 15% car and 85% driver.

I think it is 30% car, 30% equipment (2.4ghz radio, brushless motor and esc, digital servos, and mainly TIRES) and 40% driver. It is alot different from nitro to electric. In elctric, it is more about driver and car. In nitro 1/8, it is alot about how deep your wallets are. I see poeple who throw away an engine after a couple gallons, have the best servos, $400 engine, $150 pipe, gets a new set of tires every heat, etc. and I AM a better driver them the person but I dont have the money to buy that stuff!!!

you can have a lot of money in it and if they don't know how to drive it, it wouldn't help.

C'mon now. If a person knows how to drive a real car, why cant they drive a rc car? All it takes is practice.

There you go practice. so either one of those truck are good racers. I'm not a fan of anyone product so I don't tell people bias things. A lot of people know how to drive a car doesn't make them good drivers.

RC cars and real cars are two different things. Like you said it takes practice to become good,not the best equipment.

It came down to this when I was choosing trucks: Do I want a truck with more foward traction or do I want a truck that has better steering and jumps a bit better?

I'd go with the t4. After owning a few losi vehicles, I was NOT impressed with their quality. They used to be a great company, but after horizon took over...

You consider the XXX-T CR to be the quality of your Mini-Baja? Losi RTRs and race rollers are made in China. Their kits are made in the US. That is why soem people buy the 8ight kit instead of race roller because it is better quality.

He siad he owned a Losi vehicle, and it said Mini-Baja in his sig. The Mini-Baja is bascially a toy car and all I said was you cant compare the quality of the xxx-t vs. a mini-baja.

The Mad Modder, you know Thudner Tiger owns Associated?

Chris that has nothing do do with it... Associated still runs the same as they did a few years ago BEFORE thunder tiger bought Associated. Associated still has the exact same people running it.

I would say the T-4. I've owned both, xxt MF, and T-4 both r very good. I went the ae side mainly for parts at the track. Tires are the main thing with either, and most of the time i run Losi pink taper pins all around. Indoor hardpack with med bite. Go with the one YOU like best, or has better parts supply at your tracks. Keep it shiney side up!

I run a xxx-cr and its great. Im sure the truck is just as good. They are both equal at my track usually. Most people dont even run truck at my track, mostly buggy(kyosho rb5). They are both really nice. Pick the one you like.
