im really thinking about gettin an ofna x1 cr buggy (if you think theres a better one lmk), for those of you that bash your buggies how do they hold up, im talking general bashing not slap ma fro style or nitro bashers, some medium jumps and track bashing, how do they hold up on crashes from jumps

my jumps are in the border line of slapmafro bashing and good bashing. my turmoil has only broken an a-arma nd cracked a shock cap end. i also jumped over a 12 foot+ tree a couple times, last time i did it the a-arm broke off.

I totally abuse my Turmoil in the yard. I race it every weekend also. I have not broken anything except an a-arm, and that was from hitting a flower box at wot.

On my OFNA 9.5 Pro, since I bought it (used) in March of 2005, I have bent a shock shaft, which I bent back and am still using (wish I didn't buy a replacement). I have sheared 3 wing mount screws, and lost 2 steering knuckle screws. I also burned out 5 cheapy steering servos, before I bought my first good one (how does that saying go again "buy quality, buy once" ). I also lost a CVD pin once.

Parts I replaced when first I bought it, because the previous owner was an idiot and didn't maintain it:

Complete front/rear diffs, center TORSEN gears, spur gear, clutch bell gear, all bearings, steering plate, transmission cases, swaybars, swaybar mounts, fuel tank, fuel lines, fuel filters, engine, pipe, radio, receiver, receiver battery, switch, first (of many) steering servos, screw kit, body, wing, shock shafts, rear shock bodies, shock rebuild kits, steering knuckles, clutch shoes, clutch springs, etc.

I have the X1 CR RTR its great! I had engine probs after 12 tanks (i.e. break in) but it was fixed by OFNA.

I havent broken anything on it but havent been pushing it that hard at all hopefully will get some more time to bash weather permitting.
I.E. if it ever stops raining >:|

I have a Hyper 7 TQ RTR. I have broken two steering knuckles, front CV joint, melted rear diff cover and a steering servo.

Upgraded all of them (except the diff case, no upgrade possible) and now nothing ever breaks anymore.

what makes the turmoil so great, is it just because of the dx2

I bought my X1 CR used. Mint condition. Bought the rest of my parts new, just to be safe. It has held up excellent when a hack driver is driving it(me). Haha.[8D]
