ok the kanai can't be beat and i don't now how u can even compare it to the lightining 2 rr. The kanai 3 is easyly the best on the market and the quaility is the best it will outlast any buggy around i know ppl who are still winning races with an mp6 kyosho make them to last and make them well. As for the lightning it is just another cheap rip off that can't even be compared to the kanai. If that aint convincing then you are paying for the name kyosho.
