The best bet is the crt.5 with the rcm chassis, ofna lx buggy front shocks to replace the .5 rears, and jato shocks to replace the fronts. I have both a ls10 and a crt.5. The ls10 is decent, but does not have a center diff, and has some issues with the rear dogbones coming out. Limiting the rear shock travel will cure the dogbone issue. The ls10 does have a center slipper clutch with a larger plastic spur. It will handle a beating better than the .5 (my opinion).

The full option crt.5 I described will beat $600 new, and the ls10 will be much cheaper. If you only plan to bash, go with the ls10. You will have to make a battery tray, or buy one from mike when you get the motor mount...

On a side note, I have a new ls10 than I may want to sell. I could do it complete (nitro) or as a roller...
