This is an entry level buggy and as such needed some upgrades and a few other tweeks . After these tweeks and upgrades it was a rock solid vehicle , it will still break of course ;) . Depending on your experiance . I would recommend it to anyone , with the side note of getting the upgrades and tweeks done . Of course those items may have been fixed on these latest cars . Anyways this is a good car with a little work . I give it a 3 star because of the work needed to get it solid , after that though a solid 4 stars .

I would not reccomend this product at all i am very dissatisffied. the first 3 mins with it and the Rear diff started chrunching.(i was only driving on the road) so i tore it apart and i put it back then i drove it in sand and the front diff got sand in it. (i never touched the front) and about an hour ago after getting it running good the ESP overheated because i had sand paddles on. i was driving on the road.

It has became a huge money pit and its not even fast. dont believe the description because it is deffinentally not pro class. Ive seen better walmart rc cars.
