BJ4 vs X5

[mattym0310]

hi.
i was looking at buying a new 4wd buggy. i dont have much money and have found these particular cars which are the x factory x5 or the BJ4 original version [not the worlds]. i was wondering which you guys thought would be the best car to buy for around the same price. and if you have reasons write them below.

if it helps i currently run an xfactory x6 which shares parts with the bj4 but shares names with the x5.

thanks alot

simple for me this one: a non worlds BJ4 is not the best - it has been superseaded by the worlds, where as the X5 is the best that XFactory produce so thats the one to go for.
Or another way of looking at it - how many xx4 non worlds editions (or even BJ4 non worlds) do you see racing at a reasonable level? Don't think I've ever seen any...

hi col, the reason why i was stil thinking about it was... it might be slightly cheaper and the BJ4 has more titles eg. 2005 IFMA world champion and 2004 ROAR national champion where as the x5 only has 2005 national champion so they are both very competitive cars. i must agree though the x5 was the prefered option.

thanks very much guys.

But were those titlies with the non worlds spec cars?

yes. i think so the website is too confusing at first it says the standard car did then it says the worlds kit did. life really is bein so confusing today

2005 IFMAR World Champion and 2004 ROAR National Champion, the JConcepts BJ4 quickly became the fastest 4-wheel drive RC car to hit the track, ready to take on the competition.

thats taken off the BJ4 section of the website
