    Honestly I don't know which I prefer.
    The Y62 goes everywhere and can climb dunes that my 4.8 fails on - there's always another way to the top though
    The Y61 is a much stronger car and (I think) has better feel. I think it needs more skill to drive well in sand and is a better judge of driver ability - ultimately the Y61 is more rewarding.

    I try to remind myself of this when I'm still at the bottom of the dune and he's at the top.
