Bashing Buggy? Violator?

[dougc]

I am a Savage Owner, But I am looking into getting a good buggy, I am looking at the Swift or the Violator, I will not be racing at any clubs only with friends. Is the swift a good bashing buggy, It appers to be a race buggy,Please name any buggy if you feel that it is good, I was looking at a review of the Violator, and It It was good really good around. Please tell me what a good bashing buggy is, Also I dont want a pull start I would like a shaft start.

I think the violator is a good buggy.. wider is better.. and since you aint gonna race it.. just bash it.. then i would go with the Violator.. have never heard of the Swift..

the swift is suposed to be a copy of the mugen mb-x5 and comes with a airtronics fm mx-3 radio, and cvds everywhere, among other high end buggy must haves. in my opinion both would be a great buy but the swift seems more of a racer buggy than the violator and has mugen hop-up ability. id rather buy the swift between the two. also when i think of the longer arms on the violator i jsut see more leverage agianst the arms decreasing strengh, i do not think buggys need to be wider than they already are on average. just my opnions only though I'm sure both buggys will make you happy.

i agree.. i just think that ofna make a great RTR buggy.. and for just bashing.. that would be a way to go.. where can i go online and see the Swift buggy.. didnt know it is a new release.. like the Mugen.. cool.. does the swift have a laydown servo also?
