Not sure if this has been discussed before, but, what's the diff between the Kyosho Kanai II or III and the 777 Spcl 1 ? I'm looking for two more buggies to add to my collection and I was under the immpression that the 777 Spcl1 was the mack daddy of race buggies, along with the Mugen MBX5 Prospec.
I've heard that the 777scl1 hasn't got all the bugs worked out yet, is that true? In addition I was also looking at the TT S3, but would rather have two K cars, rather than one TTR and one K. Any advice would be greatly appriciated. :spit
 
Stay away from K-car unless you are really expert driver and never crash or like to wrench alot.....they are like ferraris...thay require more maintenance and Care but drive like no other.......Mugen is like the american muscle cars, they don't need to be "perfect" to still run like a scalded ass dog......I am really likeing the XB8 alot.....it's a tank too.....I had brake issues saturday morning and every time I tried to clear the triple it would nose down and SLAM into the last one at full speed......I sheared a shock screw head off...that's it....oh and I cracked an RX crystal too....not a buggy part though...
 
Sarge you should make it down to mills pond on saturdays.....good racing goin on.....I'm about ready to start racing now myself and need some race newbies so I won't ultimately suck alone....LOL...not saying you suck but at least I wouldn't be alone while I SUCK....
 
Oh Tay! So what your saying is your hoping I'll come down and drive worse than you, so you look good! I see how it is!! LOL
 
What's an "X5"? You mean an MBX5? Wouldn't you want the Prospec over the plain MBX?

Nothing wrong with the K cars, Diff between the k2 and 777sp1 is alot, there totally different cars, both are good cars, both are competative as hell, and despite common coment on them being weak, they are reasonably robust, but they are no Mugen, just thought id have to add that,
 
I have a MP7.5 and it is a beast. I'm currently working on a trade to get a new 777. I only bash but like to have a nice handling buggy, so I'm not going with the special 1. I never had any breakage problems with my Inferno MP7.5 at all...pretty much any of the top of the line buggies are durable and highly competitive from what I hear.
