Can't decide

[scottb123]

Hi there I can't decide on my next kit I've always had my hart set on a tmaxx 3.3 but then I notice the savage x4.6 and hyper 7 black I'm currently saving so it will be June July time it's mainly for bashing

theres also the new 2012 spec hyper mate, but all depends what you want really monster or a buggy. only you can make the decision mate.

What's a buggy like off road and jumPs etc

[CHUNKERLUV]

buggys are better jumpers more maneuverable and tougher than anything else on the market. They are truely a bashers dream. Unless you run on rocky ground then there sh11te.

Buggies are a racer's dream- not so great for bashing on anything other than short grass or hard/smooth dirt. A truggy would be a better choice for a basher due to better ground clearance + better handling than a monster truck.

As it was said though, it really depends on whether you want an MT, a buggy or truggy- then you can decide on a specific model or brand. Pro-tip: look at the gazzilions of videos on youtube and see which type of vehicle appeals most- you can see all 3 types on all kinds of different terrain and being driven differently....

Better to buy new for a first car if you can afford it. That way you learn to break in and tune an engine....and you know it isn;t broken!

Used trucks can have all sorts of issues that can cause you grief if you don;t know what to look for. If you have friends who know nitro then second hand saves you a bundle of cash.

That's what I was thinking I had a used tamiya before I couldn't get it to start so got rid cheers scott

[suicideneil]

Easy way around that , go electric....

[scottb123]

I was going to but I like engines ( mechanics /engineering student) plus I've got my maverick strada mt Evo until I get enough

What's the losi 8ight t 2.0 like Is it durable as a basher and jumper?

[jimmytheone]

Having just been at a bash where there where both the 8ight and 8ight t i can say that both the buggy and the truggy can take a serious hammering, the owners say the handling is superb too.
