I built my Truggy to race but during my first test drive off the track I was Shocked how amazing it drove compared to all the the other rtr vehicles I’ve driven advertised as bashers. Perhaps it’s time to start talking about how these vehicles are great on and off the track. Not to mention how fun it is to build a super high quality kit.... it’s just expensive. That being said plenty of people buy 3 rtr bashers and endless upgrades trying to make it strong.

Racer. This is looking like an awesome kit from Tekno, sadly also desperately needs an aftermarket body that covers the front shock tower, though looking at the second set of mounting positions for the body mounts they definitely knew it was coming. Not only does this look incredibly ugly imo, it's also not ideal for newer drivers who might be flipping their car more often than a pro. If you have a body covering the tower it will not dig into the dirt surface if you land on it. Sure it won't be able to fend off a "death blow" but I already see my fair share of bent Buggy shock towers after seemingly small incidents. This thing is both heavier and the shock tower is longer, creating much more leverage.
