Try and get a b44.2
If not a b44.1 there still good but not as easy to drive

I started out with a b44.1 and it was very easy to drive and even with a 10.5 motor I was faster over 5 minutes compared with others running 7.5.

around £100-£120 for a roller if theres a decent spares package a little more maybe

my son runs a b44.1 we only have broken a couple of front shock shafts and front wishbones there tough cars

pay less for a b44 maybe around 80 quid mark still good but chassis is designed for old nimh batteries not lipo

hope this helps

I have a B44.1 for sale with a few spares and a few sets of wheels.

The car has had a lot of new parts fitted recently and has the alloy hubs and shock tower mounts. also fitted with the 87g centre weight. it's also got the B44.2 shock towers so is big bore ready if you wanted to fit those.

spares include front wishbones, hinge pins, diff gears, front shock tower.

Looking for £120 posted.

I suggest going along to your local club and see what the guys there are racing/using and get the same if your budget allows. That way you won't be stuck for spares or set up advice. :)
