Yeah, makes me feel real good that every other company out there would rather scramble to make parts instead for the UDR almost immediately after release.

I haven’t seen anything yet, but I’m not watching closely for the UDR. I’ve been overall disappointed by the aftermarket side for a number of years. Have plenty of vehicles that it took year plus for aftermarket to do anything for. And some never got anything.

Well...I’m sold on the UDR. Comparable to the SBR it’s just cooler. Overall, the suspension is way better too.

Design. Adjustability. Dual set up. List goes on. The UDR has way more travel and is super plush. SBR is clunky.

what's adjustable? the dual front shocks? The SBR is adjustable. Design like the body? The puny motor?

I actually want an UDR, but I also can recognize a spade when I see them!

obviously this is fail. Just first test.

Put the SBR away for the weekend and enjoyed the UDR.

I have equal runs on my SBR and UDR. Completely different animals.

Thus far, I've broken several items on my UDR. I haven't yet broken anything on my SBR in equal amounts of bashing.

I do understand that the UDR is more of a scale rig then then SBR...but for my style of driving/fun, I prefer the SBR for the area I drive most. There is something so cool about about a massive SCT flying though the air that just does it for me.

I broke the front lower bumper/skid plate first run out from a huge endo off a jump. Same thing happened to my SBR too. $12 no biggy.

Bent one of the rear upper links, broken left front control arm and one of the tires shredded thus far.

The body on the UDR has had less abuse but shows more damage then my SBR as well. It's paper-thin at the bottom where it connect to the cage.

Just some messing around in the dark, nice that it has a tendency to land on it's feet after a roll over.

I was doing some speed runs in grass field next to parking lot but grass was tall and motor was getting warm. I have some hot racing pinion gears coming to change gearing.
