Look at what your budget is.

OTHERWISE The OS .28XZ cannot be more recommended.

its so expencive because it dosent break and parts are hard to get because you dont need them
i had sold one about a week ago to person that runs at our local track and this thing cant stop breaking he's went through a motor, one chassis, 2 front a arms and about 6 rear hubz.

This is my chassis.

The only thing ive ever broken was a Shock End, rammed into a bench @ full throttle.

Pretty hard to believe that can happen.

4 more people here have it, not one have had problems.

Trust me, this is.

Gotta see mine in real, gashes everywhere.

You cant see the front in that pic, I have a 1mm gap between the bumper mounts and the chassis.

Thats how bad this one has taken it.

I personally hate running off roaders on road. I tried running the Losi 8ight T onroad, wasnt fun. Plus it reaks havoc on your tires...

NO.!

Nothing beats it like mud.!!

And with road, theres kind of an extra strain placed on your engine+clutch, thats why I stick to offroad

Tomorrows the last day ill be running my Ofna .32 [&o]

I love putting on my old tyres and running on road, its just so different...you have to drive a whole new way...Im not saying I like it better than offroad but I think its cool...the next big racing type should be Truggy Supermoto!!!

...and there is no way powerslides on the road are better than on the dirt, too unpredictable... unless its wet. [:-]

think
Yupp, I have an onroad set of tyres, GRP Parks or whatever they're called. Theres absoloute too much grip onroad lol, Ive flipped mine a coupla times (Mines Jacked Up As High As It Will Go). Only thing I love about running onroad is the turns, absoloutely flies through the turns with the right set up.

I ususally run it on the landing strip @ the airfield (RC Airfield Obv), its absoloutely huge. Managed to destroy a set of those spikey tyres there .

That should be fun, Truggy Supermoto.

I hatee driving when its wet [:'(], always scared somethings gonna go wrong lol. I did it once, was bouncing off walls.!

Well im off to the track to drive in the DirT

RC I did that after you left lol, and my engine blew.

Thats why I need a new engine.

Justifies my hate of on-road I guess.

Right after you left, me and and another guy, took ours onto the runway, 1 tank into it. The entire head flew off.

landed on the rear bulk head gave to much throttle in the air. and when he landed it bent the chassis and the dogbone from the tranny to the rear diff so the whole rear end was locked up.

Mine gets flung around everywhere, I dont have a chassis to speak off.?

Mines never broken, 3 guys at the track have it and they're chassis never broke.?

Only thing problem we've encountered is that the clutch goes like dust, burns out quite quick, I never checked mine, used the same one for 5 gallons and my engines calld it quits now...

This thing has been flown off cliffs, the only time I really broke something due to quality was the a - arm, but those were designed to be the weakest point in a car..
