RE: Did i buy an out of date buggy
In my opinion, the Hyper 7 is not an out-of-date buggy, it it just not that popular to racers anymore. If you are a hardcore racer, definitely the Hyper 7 may not have that competitive edge. However, if you enjoy bashing with other guys or racing on a club level, the Hyper 7 is more than enough, just get a high performance engine and pipe and do a lot of practice.
I purchased a used Ravager last year, and I managed to build another Ravager out of parts from on-line auctions. I enjoy playing with this buggy and I have not considered my buggy as Out-Of-Date.
Thanks
