MJX VW Rally car 1/14

[Ritz413]

Looks like this...

Do you own 1 of these? What the experience been like ? I have watched a fair amount of yt review footage, most seems really good. Ultimately I'm looking at it as something that can run on the dirt oval at my place. Needs enough ground clearance to deal with a semi flat surface. Like this 1.

Depending how much maintenance I give depends on if there is the occasional weed obstacle, partial startup moss coating, and dirt of varying moisture content.
Is this a good choice?

For size reference that is almost half the oval, and the buggy is 1/10 scale

Have you looked into LC Racing's options?

@OnwardGuinevere build one and its great!

@TeknoJ also has a couple LC's and seems very happy with them too.

I have never seen a bad review for an LC Racing car.

If it's the small one, about 10" long I have the ZD Racing version below in blue, awesome carpark basher, way too fast for what it is..
Size comparison against, 1/10 touring car, Traxxass 4Tec, Arrma Grom, in my opinion would be useless off road, it's a rally car in looks only in my opinion...

In this form, the LC12B1 does very well in sand. Very light, very quick!

@CertifiedMike thanks for the mention.
I also want to add the rlaarlo 1/12 rally car. I don’t know what it’s called but it is still on Amazon. It looks like a killer.

Options are always good. The lc racing stuff is a good bit more $$

Well worth it though. They actually go off road unlike the rally cars. Parts are readily available and you can actually rebuild the thing.
