Default Anyone driven the Turmoil???

I have only found a few reviews on the Turmoil. How do you like it? Is it better than the Mayhem? Trying to decide between it and a Losi8.

I have driven the Turmoil and Mayhem. I like the Turmiol very much it is a better buggy than the Mayhem. We sold the Mayhem to buy the Losi 8 which is a very nice buggy. If you are going to be a serios racer go with the Losi 8.

If you are going to race competitively, get the eight. if you wanna do some weekend racing and some occasional bashing, get the turmoil. the turmoil is the only buggy ive driven, but from what i can tell you its a good buggy for the money. my experiences with it: http://www.rcuvideos.com/view_video....dbd0694a4e9bdc (must be the 10th time posting this vid...since the turmoil rtr review was made the turmoil has been quite a hit.)

I'm realy good with my mayhem. I have been champ the last 2 yrs with it at the local track. I went to a different track and TQ with it there but got taken out in the main and came back to finish 3rd. I just wonder if I should try the turmoil because if it drive the same I will be more comforable with it sooner. I watch the losi 8 run against my son last weekend. It looked very good. I just want to make the right choice so I don't have to start over with a new buggy half way through the season. All the help the better.

I think the turmoil is a great buggy, but like the other guy said if racings your thing and you're serious get the 8ight. It all depends what level your at really. If your as fast as you can possibly go with your mayhem and the buggy is holding you back I doubt you will see massive improvements with the turmoil.
