Well if you are going to bash and race I would go with the RC18B/T.

I prefer trucks so I would get the truck version.

thanks, do you guys know an adapter that converts the pin drive into a 14mm or 17mm hex drive? Then I can us 1/8 buggy rims/tires or maxx sized sand paddles.
Thanks,
Nick

Those are way too big. Go with some 12mm hex adapters, Driven productions makes some nice ones which can be found on www.TheToyz.com

Will 2.2 truck tires fit the 12mm hexes? Is there much of a difference between the aluminum and the Delrin adaptors?
Also, is it possible to run a 4s lipo pack (14.4v) with a mamba?
Thanks guys,
Nick

Yep.

Just material used, and price.

Also, is it possible to run a 4s lipo pack (14.4v) with a mamba?
Not without voiding warranty/blowing up your ESC. Get a Quark if you want to to run big packs like that.
