I would definatly buy a scale if you didnt need to run new tires at every race. Just way to expensive for me at the time being. Im still all gung ho about getting one but new tires every race. Like 800 bucks for a kit, plus pay for electronics and motor, ect. Just way to expensive for me. I would agree with JT to a point. Each class is a different world if you ask me. Yes mt is easier to because in terms of there more forgiving on the track but try racing something with a huge cog and make make fast lap times. Race people with better skill level then you in your class and it doesnt get that easy once you get all those things together. Each class has its own easy things and difficult things and for buggy thats just a more difficult class to race because of the cars not being so forgiving. For mt it can be more of the competition that makes racing hard. At least for me and the pro series it is. I find it very challenging to race people of my skill level side by side simply because i cant predict what the other guy is gonna do and im trying to avoid him from crashing. Maybe this year I can get a scale and at least get a feal for what your talking about jt. I have no doubt racing scale is difficult to get used to and good at. Maybe il just buy a cheaper rtr buggy and at least check out the class and competition.
