New buggy!!!
#1
My buddy is looking at getting into 1/8th scale, he is trying to decide between a

Ofna 9.5
kyosho
mugen

Which one should he get? I told him the kyosho or mugen! He is looking at a little bit of racing with some bashing thrown in.

Squirrel, tell him to buy kyosho. You saw the beating I gave mine yesterday and all I broke was a $5 part..

I hate to break it to you but pretty much all 1/8th scales take that beatin. My storm did and only ever sheared off screw in the wing mount, and Tommy's ofna did yesterday. That is they way they are designed. Actually Tommy's landed even harder than yours did from what I hear and didn't break a thing.

In the end if you want a basher go with ofna. If you want a racer go with the jammin, kyosho or mugen...

I think the mayhem is an awesome all around choice. For the money I don't think you can find a better buggy...

Ouch... LoL

Before you beat the crap out of the mayhem try it on the track. No use trashing the thing if you decide you will want to be a racer... I've learned. LoL
