The associated RC18T is a pretty solid little truck. Can't speak for the new version with belt drive but the older one is pretty solid. Only upgrades to mine are rpm shock towers, front arms, and FT shocks all around; it has been running 5400kv motor like this for quite some time now with no drivetrain issues. It still gets hung up on bigger obstacles but handles pretty well for it's size and is stupid fast for it's size! On carpet it will pull standing back flips until I dialed up the punch control
