I purchased one a few years ago just for the simple fact that I ride and I'm into R/C so it was a no brainer!! LOL It looks cool. All the way down to the chain drive w/sprockets. I only ran about 5 tanks through it. I came to the conclusion that I should've just left it in the package where it "looked" cool. LOL They weren't made to ummmmmm, go. I guess with a little time and effort it can be setup, but I didn't mess with it too much. The front shocks have waaaaay to much dampning and the rear not enough dampening or preload. I'm not a fan of Kyosho simply b/c of the plastic they use. I wouldn't think the quad can take too much of a beating, then again, I didn't run a ton of fuel through it and it was on mostly pavement. Now it sits in the closet.

ive seen one doing great tight donuts but the chain drive isnt so good for offroad because you can chew up the gear at the gearbox end with one small rock

from a distance old cars look really bad but when you look up close there mostly metal and running some good gear. and probly more realistic
the tamiya blazing blazer is the best rc car ive ever seen but i bet it costs a mint.

their performance probly lacks
