What to choose????

[sweetride4me]

So I am going to be doing a brushless conversion on something this winter and am having a hard time even deciding on the type of vehicle I want to do this on.... should it be a truggy, an MT (revo would be my only choice in the cat) or even a buggy???? I will be doing 95% bashing (taking on my buddies 5B SS) but who knows if I really like it.... Any suggestions, would a center diff in a truggy/buggy help, hurt or neither, like the idea of the standstill backflip and all and the instant torque...

Just looking for some guidance and/or ideas....

I would go with a truggy. Probably a CRT X2 or a 8ight-T, with a MMM, neu 1515 1.5y on 6s enerland cells.

That's my australian shepherd actually. She is the sweetest dog ever. :) She is 9 years old, and is healthy as ever.

A CD will not allow standing backflips, it will unload power to the front wheels helping to keep it planted. it will help in handling. Having just sold my Revo after a string of MT's i have owned and buying a buggy I woill say buggy, but that isa biased opinion.

I recommend looking at 1/8 buggies and truggies, and unless you have a machine shop at your disposal, choose something that rc-m or tekno make conversion parts for. Another reason to go with 1/8 buggy is you will be running it against a buggy :) Even with a locked CD a buggy will not do standing backflips, it sits too low, but will wheelie.

As cool as the standing flips look they are very hard on parts. I shredded several revo diffs doing them.
