An FG Baja. lol.

I don't know how many people you'll find who...

a) Apart from me, are willing to call the HPI Baja the pile that it is (on a track, it's best in the desert).
b) Have owned all three, and assuming they have...
c) Have actually found a racing class locally for all 3.

I look forward to hearing if there is...

on a track...yep...i'd agree

losi seems to be doing well, mcd are track proven but incredibly high maintenance and parts are not cheap...unfortunately the fg baja 4wd, although lightning fast, doesn't like to turn..at least not on the 2 tracks we have up here

That's bound to ruffle some feathers.

I would have to say that the baja is a pile in any direction but straight forward.. preferably in a desert.. my nutech handles better on a track but cant compete in a drag race..

Just wondering why you are going to compare hpi which is 2wd to MCD and losi which are 4wd. 2wd and 4wd are whole different animals on a track and racing them..Can't even compare them.

Well we are comparing them. Its not my fault they are only 2wd.

I just want to compare the 1/5th out there, not really to fussed about if its 2wd or 4wd. Im asking for a friend.

sure the HPI Baja might be a great 2wd but thats no help when my 5ive continues to woop his ass.... but I will recomend him not to get one..
