between the mbx5r and the mbx5 prospec. Are they the same thing like truggy, theres the mbx5t then the prospec? Im guessing the prospec is better?
Good Guess
Actually, i was just looking, and the mbx5r costs more tho...
5r is new, 5 prospec is old.
Yeah if they were the same thing, my life would have been so much easier when I went to pick one up..Hundreds of mbx5 prospecs out there, and like 5 5R's out there f/s.
ahh i c. Thanks guys, im thinking about maybe getting a buggy after christmas cause ill have my job then and be able to afford two classes.
My Prospec will be for sale by then Smile
Well im thinkin about new probably, just because i know how easily stuff wears out and everything, like i was cleaning the truggy today and already the clutch bearings are screwed, and stuff like that. But if i cant afford new, ill keep you in mind.
u cant afford 1$ clutch bearings???
Yes i can. That was an example. If you want me to list out everything that can be used or worn i will but id still prefer new.
how in the hell can u wear out a truck in a month
yeah for real....
Ok you want me to list i guess,

clutch bearings, a pin popped out of the cvd and cut a line in the arm, and the turnbuckle thing, so its getting ready to crack. Tires worn and coming unglued, the steering post bearings got pretty dirty and i tried to clean them but theyre kinda sticky still. Body getting cracked. Ill think of more if you want.
But either way, ill much rather get new so i know exactly how it was built and so i know how to rebuild it and what not.
Cool wow thats what you call alot getting worn out??? man you do have alot to learn, a set of tires?!?! wtf do u expect all i can say is wow. when u start going through a list of parts like that in a race day then u can bitch
How many times do you think i raced in a month? I raced the bash and 1 club race. 2 races total, and maybe 4 practice nights on the whole thing. Thats not much driving.
thats like a gallon of fuel, and it still runs no problem ur on crack
2 and a half gallons. I know it runs great but id want new before used. Thats what i prefer, If you dont then buy used.
man kid u give me a headache
Lol...

I know what he means about buying used though. I got a couple used things and there was stuff rigged that I havn't corrected yet.
this thread blows donkey dong
lol? ^^
three offroad cars from mugen; mbx5t,mbx5t prospec, and the mbx5r
