Default B44 or BJ4WE?? What do you rate best?

I race a 501X and love it. I also like many of the new 4WD buggies around at the moment. Ive recently traded for a nice Yokomo BX and may think about a shaft drive car. I have always liked the BJ4WE but is the AE B44 the better car. I'd value some genuine input. Thanks-Jason.

So there's nothing more refined on the B44 from the BJ?

The Bj4 is a very nice build, i will be trying a few home made mods in the coming weeks but these are not something that come on the b44, the b44 has a weak rear end, where the innercamber links mount, the bj does not

I pressume the B44 without carbon plastic and aluminium parts which are on BJ4WE, make a more predictable and more reliable chassis.

Is the B44 is a significant improve of BJ4WE? I think it only depends on driving skill and how driver feel the car on the track...

How would plastic parts instead of aluminum be more reliable?

No... I just mean for example: aluminium front bulkhead combine with B4 carbon plastic front arm (BJ4 first release) are less reliable than non-carbon plastic part mounted on B44
