Buggy decision need help!

[nathanstl]

OK I've been trying to decide on a new 1/8 scale now ever since I got my Nitro Evader and loved it so much. First I was thinking GS Storm RTR new or possibly a used pro off of eBay, but now I'm also considering the xtm xterminator deluxe, Ofna Hyper 7 PBS, and Ofna 9.5 Violator. Which is the strongest for bashing? I care mainly about power and durability. The ofna's will be easier to get parts for around here and when it comes down to deciding between them, I think I like the violator because it's described as "being designed for bashing", but the PBS seems to be a nicer model in their line because it sells for +$500 and the violator sells for low $400's. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

man, this question has been asked and answered sooo many times.... hit that search link on the top of the page and put "buggy purchase" or "best buggy" in there. You'll get a poop load of results.

Good Luck,

I have and I didnt find anything on the xterminator deluxe and none comparing the pbs and violator. i think my questions are unique with these models specifically. Thanks!

If you can get the hyper seven pro. It works for me so it might work for you. But thats my opinion. I race it at my local track and it works fine. Plus it kind of tight because paul colman comes to are track alot. :redbuggy: :redbuggy:

I'm getting the Violator! Got it for 389.00 on eBay shipped with a nimh receiver pack and charger! Very nice deal. When I get it I will take detailed pictures including close ups for other people wanting to get a better look at it, I know I would've appreciated that. I can't wait although I'm still not 100% sure I made the right decision, but I do like every feature of the violator I just hope that engine holds up. Thanks for the help guys!
