MY turn to Ask the QUESTIONS

I was talking about 1/10 stadium trucks in general,rustler included,in comparison to MTs,it's just i happen to run that one so i gave it as an example.i find them extremely durable,owing to the fact they weigh next to nothing,they don't have the inertia to hurt themselves very often.drop a spider from a second floor window,then an elephant and see who comes off best.Durability is a prime concern in racing too.As for XXXTs only being good for racing,well i have a blast with mine anyway.I still think a 1/10 stadium truck is cheaper to run than and break less than a MT,and less time consuming,some more than others naturally,like you say the traxxas trucks since they have that bit of flex.having the planetary diff and not a ball diff should make for less maintenance too,can't go wrong with the rustler/pede for lot's of reasons,availability of parts,cost of running,maintenance,durability,fun etc.
