RC18MT/RC18B
I want to get the RC18B and bash it. My friend says the RC18MT is better for jumping. I have looked at them both, they look identical exept for the body shock towers and tires/wheels. Will the RC18B not jump as good? They are both awseome but i like how the 18B looks better. What do you guys think?

RE: RC18MT/RC18B
So Cal,
you're correct in assuming that they are nearly identical. the only difference is the tires, rear shock tower, body, and wing. Either truck/buggy can be transformed into the other with very few additions. The MT is better at jumping because of the larger tires, but I say get what you like better. You can always convert it later.

RE: RC18MT/RC18B
OK thanx guys, looks like im getting the MT. My buddy has three and the only thing he broke is a a-arm because he was doing at least 30mph and slammed into the back of a plastic ramp. And we where jumping it off my plastic kickers propped up on a car tire over a bush a good 7ft tall or more. Then he gapped a 20ft gap down the street and cartwheeld about 50ft down the street hit the ground on all fours and kept going. After that he was jumping it so high i had to catch it with a t-shirt to keep it from smaking the groung from a good 10-12ft in the air. (he has a reedy modified motor and it is blistering fast i couldnt imagine it with a BL!)So i know it is VERY durable. Was just unsure which was better. Thanx again for your help guys.
