Rc10gt is a good choice. The jato seems pretty decent as well. Rc10gt has a TON of parts available for it. As far as price check out Tower or shoot RushRc a pm on here and see what he can do for ya. You plan on racing or bashing?
do not get the jato! got one all it does is break, traxxas made some compromises and it is weak. yes it is light, yes it is fast (oh man), but it will not take a pounding, but it is fast!!
and you cannot get replacment parts for it (at least the ones you are going to break)
rc10gt is great. tons of parts as they said, and easy to take apart and fix if somethin happens. the engine runs and runs I've had mine for a few years and the stock engine still screams. its not the most expensive high end truck, but id say its a great design and very durable, and may be the best stadium truck
I have a nitro rush evo. Its pretty good but i need some upgrades. Its real quick and has good handling. THe only problem is the parts are pretty hard to get to and fix.
I have a HPI Nitro Rush, the older verson of the evo. That too needs a few upgrades, but it has pretty good handling on and off road. But then again, its my only car and its the only stadium car I've ever handled
