    I own the 1/18 d90 and bronco from rc4wd...they are has junky as the 1/24 and priced even higher. I do not recommend. Absolutely no upgrades available just replacement parts and customer support is no support at all!! I have removed the wheels and tires off the rigs and they sit on the bottom shelf. Extremely disappointed with rc4wd and it's obvious they don't care!!

    These things are GREAT trucks! I managed to snag a second one with the introductory price before they went out of stock everywhere because I liked it so much. It's a great platform to build from - but it's totally capable stock, so there's not even a huge need to build it up. (It's just an undeniable aspect of the hobby!) 😆

    You should redo your test on the track and run all three on the same lines and the same way. The way you drove the redcat was different then the way you drove the other 2. Plus driver error was one of the touches you had on the redcat and yet you still recorded the touch as a ding, but you touched the fury wagon 3 times and one was driver error and you didnt count that touch. As I see it you were not unbiased in this comp and makes for inaccurate resaults. Lets also include the price for these vehicles, the redcat did almost just as good as the others and it is a brushed system and it is 100 bucks when the other 2 are 200 and up.

    @@twain772 that is a solid assessment. I definitely wasn’t TRYING to give any of them an advantage, but I can acknowledge it wasn’t completely fair. My scoring system was also flawed in that it didn’t give credit for how much better trucks were in each category - just a flat 1-2-3 point system. So if one of them was WAY better, the scoring doesn’t reflect that. All in all, I do think the results reflect the proper ranking, but the scoring is wrong. I think the Ascent is way closer than the scores reflected. Thanks for checking it out and the feedback!
