I'd get the backdraft 8e. All that 1/5 scale weight landing on one suspension arm totally spells trouble, and then you have to pay for that big 1/5 scale arm.
my 25 pound king motors baja has yet to break a a-arm.
i have broken a wheel, and the stock plastic roll cage tho.
its true that larger scale can mean larger repair bills. just comes with the territory.
