i understand what your saying. dont get me wrong im all about rcs built just for fun but when your new rc cant perform as good as a lunchbox it kinda sucks. i get so upset about this chassis . i really like fun rcs like the lunchbox but im not a big fan of that chassis. i thought it would be great to have a new improved lunchbox type rc with full aarms front and rear with real shocks. wild willy 2 came out i had to get one to take to the offroad track that i made with a friend . even with no jumps on this track i dont think the stock ww2 could get up to full speed or make a full lap without rolling over . i was mad and it was not fun.

What made the Lunch Box & Midnight Pumpkin such big hits were that they had a perfect balance between drivability and stuntability. Models like the Wild Willy were far too stuntability oriented I feel which caused undrivability.
