Hmm...I have a k2 and I like it so far...Just because it runs well and the only problems I've had so far were my fault; incorrect servo wiring...not puting washers where they were supposed to be...and not lock-tighting screws....But overall it seems great so far...And the os 21rg that came with it runs real strong too...Starts easy and stays running. Too pricey to buy new though...Got mine in a trade.

I run a XB8. I like the quality and wear of the parts. Also like the tuning options that the Xb8 has. Endless amounts of tuning options. Car feels good to me on the track.

I have 3 Kyosho 7.5's.. one is all done up K3, one is a converted truggy K2, and the other is my on road beater which used to be a Landmax 2. Good bugies are durable as hell, versatile, fast and easy to work on.

I'll keep it simple. I have/had a GS Storm. I loved it. Very fast, handles well, and very durable. + easy to work on. (But for some stupid reason I want a MT...???)

I run a TTR s3 despite what alotta of people have said, I love it and think it handles great. The thing is a tank too Smile

Its nice to see guys using a variety of differet brands of buggy and still being succesful before it was kyosho or bust (literally) lol

uh oh i'm the only one running ofna. i got a 9.5 and love it! the only thing i have had to do is get new servos and a new motor but it's a durable basher and not half bad on a track! i won't win a championship with it but for general race it will work!

Squirrell I also have a Ofna, Ultra MBX Comp. I like it so far, I have had it for about 6 months now. The real test will be at LH this winter. I have replaced the usal stuff like servos, pipe and such so it's alittle quicker now. :wavey:

I raced a Mugen MBX5. Quality buggy, tough, handled good. I can't compare it to any other buggies though, that's the only one I've ever raced

I've got a Mugen MBX4 buggy and a converted MBX4 truggy...both tough as hell, seem to handle well, although I've never had them on a track yet.
