I might do the losi truggy conversion.... that looks amusing. Prolly find a used XXX-4 or XX-4 chassis on the cheap and build as I can afford it. That HPI truck looks interesting too. If you were to let it go, what might I expect for a price?

Yeah, the RS4MT would make a better basher than a converted XXX-4. The XX-4 and XXX-4 need a few metal hopups to strengthen them up a bit, but 4wd's by nature are just more fragile than 2wd cars, and definitely require more maintenance with two diffs, belts that wear, etc.

Paypal is good for me. When you get a chance, PM me with how much it would cost you to mail it... I think that would work best--I'm impatient when it comes to mods and toys! lol

it comes stock with gear diffs out of the nitro rs4 but they make ball diffs

hubb hobby still has belts and diffs instock for the rs4 and the great thing about hpi is the back stock alot of parts for there older cars. i call them often for parts on my mini nitro rs4

for off road i would much rather have fluid filled gear diffs maybe thats because of all the time i spend racing 1/8 scale buggys, ball diffs require to much work for off road with mod motors. now on road is a whole diffrent story

i have never had belt trouble with a losi car other than the street weapon

So really I have two options, and it looks like for the time being that the Rs4 is going to be the cheaper of the two.... making me think....

a savage is a great truck for bashing but to really a good race truck. if its your first real rc i would with an eletric truck the T4 rs is a great truck for racing and bashing, the traxxas truck are good as well, i love my e-maxx


e-maxx + gravel pit = fun

Tom and I both have the T4, AJ. I'm not too knowledgeable about the whole spectrum of RC trucks, but it seems like a can't-miss choice for beginners.
