The capability that you get with a properly implemented pimp cane is unmatched. Nothing else beats it. Sticks come close but the cane still edges them out 4 outta 5 times. Tubers and TVP's don't stand a chance.

I'm sure I'm gonna take some flack for that last statement but let me qualify that. A 4 link "can" win when a course is built to be done by a 4 link...the cane will still do great. A course built for a cane...the 4 links dnf.

Pimp Cane.....its basically cheating.
They both have there Pro's and Con's.... Some guys don't like the PC's Feel. Once you learn to drive a PC. It can be very good and hang with any set up out there. The Stick has mroe ground clearance due to the mounting, but as a little more axle sway. I miss my old Super Pimp Cane... Building another one rigth now.

I lifted my cane to have a half inch greater clearance then my buddies stick on integy w/spool axles.
Another advantage of the PC is that I can modify lift lower shorten etc with out much trouble at all. To do the same with a stick you have to re-size links and in general go through a lot more hassle.
