[welsh man]

hi
i am looking to buy a RTR off road electric buggy i want to know which one of the two would be the easiest to upgrade also i would like to know whichis faster and which one has more grip
i would also like some more suggestions on ajny other cars with budget being an option

The MadRat is a better car, more suitable to being upgraded and is basically a cheap copy of an RC10B4. It's faster as stock than a Master Smacker but a bit more tricky to control as it is just a 2 wheel drive.

Master Smacker is dead easy to handle and is fine if your just going to be bashing about, but is less suitable for racing (changing gear ratios is a pain, spur gears never run true).

Alternatively there's the Step-up models or the HPI Brama 10B if you want to spend a bit more - I've no experience of either but have seen the Step Up Stinger recommended before.

you might be better off buying a second hand car as you would pick up a better car for the same money with option parts already fitted and some spares that is if you dond mind buying secondhand

[welsh man]
