What buggies are you using ?


Recommended Posts

For a buggy I am using the good old Team Associated b4.1, still competitive at my club.

 

in 2wd most people are running these or Losi 22's

 

For 4wd a few have the new Schumacher cat K1 (very nice but a bit nose heavy) and Associated B44.2's.

 

There are a couple of others who runs Ansmanns and and alike but the hardcore group run with the above.

 

All this is 1/10th scale mind

 

As above depends on the usage

 

For Bashing I use my FTX Carnage Truggy if you want a cheap bash buggy you can get an FTX Vantage

 

The world is your oyster depending on allowable funds etc

For Example in 4wd

 

It can be as cheap as this http://www.modelsport.co.uk/ftx-vantage-1-10-4wd-brushed-buggy-rtr/rc-car-products/40387

 

Or as dear as this http://www.modelsport.co.uk/schumacher-cat-k1-pro-1-10-off-road-4wd-assembled/rc-car-products/371892

 

 

Bearing in mind the Schumacher is only a roller so another

Well this is about as cheap as Nitro gets http://www.modelsport.co.uk/ftx-carnage-nt-1-10th-rtr-4wd-nitro-truck/rc-car-products/369461

 

Again in 1/10th scale so a bit oddball size wise

 

Here's a link to every Nitro model available on Modelsport currently http://www.modelsport.co.uk/rc-nitro-models/rc-car-categories/9900/990015

He had 8ights last time, so probably want's something better or on par I would guess ?

 

 

You are more than likely right but we need a budget idea first

 

To be honest Nitro is not my forte so will butt out from here

Nitro is not my thing to but he's asking for a buggy. 

 

Have a look at Mugen MBX7, Kyosho MP9, DNX408, Serpant 811, S-Works 350, Hot Bodies 812, Xray XB9 are the top ones I can think of.

Mp9 is prob the best buggy out there at the mo, the team associated rc8.2 is excellent also. If your planning to race it go to your local club n see what everyone's using n give you a better idea. Most popular at the moment at my clubs are rc8.2, losi 3, s works and the d812
