On a serious note that berg in the video is a great crawler. Alot of it has to do with the driver having skills but having a berg is a huge advantage. | |

the guy JUST built it. i don't knwo how much time he has on it. i'll bet you my shafty could keep up but how effortless it climbed with ZERO torque twist was amazing. A Berg seams like the diference between sex with Lube and sex without. In the end they will both make it, but the Berg will make it much easier. |

He built it a while ago but has changed it around to the setup in the video, Hey Kris if you even see Nic get him to bring his berg and drive it, they are totally diffferent,i think if i were to build a moa i would build a bully they are getting better now so why not save a few bucks right |

i really am not impressed at all. I could pull all those lines with my SWX AX10. granted he has the disadvantage of chisles, but really, a well tuned shafty could rock all those lines. some uf his hops up onto and over ledgess, are all wheel speed, not berg specialness. (buy a 35t cough) dont get me wrong, i plan on building a berg, a MOA losi , or something uber top secret when i get my taxes back in Jan. but until then im fine with my AX10. |

When I see a berg pull a nice line I take it as a personal challenge. People tend to put bergs in a class of their own, my goal is to build an ax10 W/O A DIG that can compete with the bergs. |

i only get berg envy with front and rear dig, no freewheel and some sidehilling instances. other than that, i take it as a challenge too. hey i mean team Pro has only 1 solitary MOA, and thats glass amn and his bully |

There is no doubt that a MOA will have some advantages that a shafty doesnt... But I see nothing in that vid that a comparably set up shafty could not do. |
