What race bred buggy for bashing?
 
I'm only a basher, I 've never raced, but I'd love a decent buggy to take to BMX tracks and skateparks. What 1/10 2wd/4wd buggy would you say could handle a bashing without breaking every time and is also fairly cheap for parts?

losi 22, either the original one or the 2.0, junk on the track, cheap and it just does not break...imo

Looking at some of the bashing videos on Youtube, i'd say anything race bred will be knackered within a couple of hours.

Get a second hand 8th scale. Very rarely break and part pricing is generally in line with 10th scale parts.

Mines nearly 3 years old and all i've replaced from crashing is a couple of wishbones and a diff housing. Total cost about 20 quid.

(I've worn a fair bit out, but not broken much!)

Get a Losi Ten SCTE, basically a 1/8th buggy with a truck body.
Bulletproof.
