I currently have a blaster, am between beginner to intermediate, and use it for a small area, where I don't use anything more than mid fourth gear. I do a lot of donuts and burning out, screwing around etc. and was thinking about a trailblazer, but saw a good cond. '96 sport 400. The owner said it was in good shape, but he dosen't think it would be good for a "kid" What do you think about the sport 400? How about compared to the trailblazer? Will the Polarises extra height be a major prob when just screwing around Thanks

 

Anyone?

 

definately go for the sport. polarises are awsome for blowing donuts and hacking around.
drive it and see if you like it.

Find out why he doesn't think it would be good for a "kid". You might also define "kid" for us.. ;-) Has it been heavily modified, or is it stock?

If he will let you test ride it, try it out. The Sport will have lots more power than a Blaster, but it weighs more, and sits higher. It will also be a much plusher ride, and you can "grow into" the sport.

 

The sport 400 is stock, and supposedly in good shape, except for 1 rollover. He said he didn't recommend it for a beginner, but said he would still sell it (He just wanted to make it clear that he was not responsible for any accident that I could get into ) I don't know why he thought I would hold him responsible, but anyways: he said I can try it out. Thanks

 

I would be interested to hear your impressions after a test ride.

Let us know.

 

This sucks.The guy sold it. Apparently some other guy offered him more than his offer, and I couldn't top it. Just unlucky I guess. Anyways, if I get another opportunity, I'll tell you how it is.
