I like the rustler so much that I bought the 2wd & 4wd
Kinda ironic you're in this thread....seeing your banner beneath your username!
It does kinda make sense though!
I think it'll be stale by the time it gets to you!Can someone make me some popcorn
Gas powered 1/5 gets my vote over a nitro 1/10. Five years ago I wouldn't have said that. But here and now, gas may be the better alternative to nitro. Electric is still numero uno with me. 1/5 gas, a maybe. I almost pushed the buy button on one years ago. May be time to reconsider. Exhaust noise was what tempered my decision first time.
Caleb, you looking at the Redcat MT or buggy? MT looks proportionally balanced. Buggy not so much so. Of the three (2 Red Cat and 1 Rovan) Rovan has a great price point. Parts availability then becomes a factor in selection.
Good luck. Cheers. 'AC'

King Motor! hated my original rampage!
Wait, I never thought about this, but with a gas RC, could you go to a gas station, fill up a fuel can, and then pour that into your RC? If so, I can see the appeal for gas, it's a lot more accesible, versus sourcing and buying Nitro online (I'm guessing the shipping money can be a bummer).
There's always slightly less powerful, quieter pipes. Interesting that the MT would be better balanced than the buggy, but I haven't even seen any pics of these rigs! The Rovan uses basically the same parts as it's HPI counterpart, which I can't remember the name of!
