But in some cases these "home built" cars are very impressive depending on who is doing the building. Don't think that just because it's factory built you won't have problems. I would suggest you speak to some BDR owners directly. They are great cars but each make can have its quirks. I know quite a few guys with BDR cars. Some have had some issues but overall they're pleased with the purchase.
I have a BDR#471, and to date no problem with the roller.
The only problem I ever had was with the motor that was installed. That is totally seperate from the roller itself. BDR are solid, and you should not expect to have any king of problems.
I stand corrected, there is a siginificant problem to be expected when owning a BDR..
