1/5 scale Off-Road
#31
Czech-it-Out Graphics Wrote:i dont wanna sound like a dick, but im sure i will; I think the 1/5ths scales are cool to have, mess with em once in a while but man id get bored. They are slower, less durable (due to the weight i know but still) and cant jump or handle like a buggy or truggy. I think thats the major turn off even if it ends up being cheaper to run...again just my opinion

I have no clue where your geting this information. Your opinions are just fine & they are yours. When you say slower though, where did that come from ? We have a customer with an FG that has beat tons of stuff on the dragstrip there in Lynwood. Being as it runs over 70mph. I don't call that slow ! Even the ones we build here daily run 50. That would eat up a buggy or truggy in speed. They are very durable too. They show breakage mainly when crashed into something very ridgid, Like anything else would too. They are not built to be an 1/8th scale buggy or truggy. You say they can't Jump or handle like one, which is again wrong. If you want to spend the money they can do about anything. I understand it's not what your into, which is fine, but why knock them when you have very little knowledge of them at all. If it's not what you like Don't buy one by all means Wink
