Glad to see Brian is doing well and hope to see him continuing to do well with that RANGO!
it is good to see brian racing still, if i was that good i would be too! what's so good about the dex? could you give me a run down :)

I think it's other way around... The Dirtinator will drive any 4wd he likes until x-factory's own is ready :)

Hey Paul,

http://www.team-durango.com/blog/?p=1801

Either way - its great to have him driving the Rango. Whatever way it turns out (note that Durango say "new team Durango signing - Brian Kinwald") It is going to be good for both brands and for spectators especially.

I have never driven a better 4wd buggy. The DEX is simply awesome.

Cheers

Everyone raves about the Durango. It must be a great car. I've never seen one, much less driven one, but I just cannot get over their weird looking waistline. They look like they should be rocket propelled! :lol: I'd have to get a wide undertray and different body.

I don't particularly care for the name. :P They couldn't have come up with anything better than Durango? Does it have any other significance to it besides being a Dodge SUV or a Mexican state?

The car is tough, drives like an 8th scale, and the gear diffs work great. I hate working on my cars, I actually enjoy working on this one. 4 screws and the diff slides out, take the hole slipper out with just one clip. Really in design it is a 1/10th scale F1 car in fit/finish/design. Easy to work on, easy to switch parts fast, fast to drive on the track, whats not to like?

I don't car for the stock body, but the Azarshri body tops mine off nice. I gained 2 laps with this car vs by b44 I had before

it sounds like a mission impossible to me unless you change the battery and motor when you switched your car.

We turn 13-14 second laps at our track. So picking up a 1/2 - 1 second a lap will add up. Here is our track, smooth and fast.
