I own a mugen mbx-5 and let me tell you, they are tough. I bash mine very hard and I have only broke an a arm and bent a shock shaft in 2 yrs. The truck and the buggy are build w/the same quality components.

As far a s a motor goes, a Medusa is a cheaper alternative to a Neu and half the price...they are very well liked by many forum members. I own a Neu and a Medusa. Both are very good..If you are racing, go w/the Neu,...if you are doing both, well, the choice is yours.

Mike sellls some batteries here that are very good...don't skimp on the batts! You get what you pay for!

good luck!
