[QUOTE="The-Boss, post: 726220, member: 1305"] This ^. Yes driver, wheelbase, belly clearance, the right line ect.. are huge. But for a well built rig, it depends on what it is built for. There is definitely middle ground on trail rigs but for light weight comp vs bouncer race, I don't see a debate. No way Screaming Blue is going to crawl like a light rig. If that hurts someone's feelings they were mistaken. No way a light rig is going to fly up a bounty hill and take a savage beating. My rig is a little heavy for crawling but that 5% of the time I get the urge to lay a strait beatdown or hit something gnarly it is worth the extra weight and parts cost to me. I am also fine adding a little weight for reliability and less damage repair. I enjoy watching all kinds of rigs do work. Especially when they are in there element. [/QUOTE]
