well i would personally go for the mini baja because with all of the upgrades they put in it it would be a much better idea.

The mini baja has a battery pack a better radio, bearings, oil shocks, better motor and a few other things and it's only $50 more.
take a look at www.killerhobbies.com or www.thetoyz.com for prices otherwise the selling section here or ebay would be good

yea, the stock motor and battery are great on the mini baja. the perfect amount of power and speed IMO.

yet i like the feature of the mini-t that allows u to use normal batterys so when i am out and messing NO CHARGING.
even though i will subsitute some power
and plus i am no pro racer so as long as it can handle a beating im good.
so any good list of parts??

well, i would get the mini baja and a motor because you are wasting a bit of money to get what the baja includes and if you get everything seperately you'll reach that $200 budget sooner. I'd get a mini baja, the motor you listed and a MIP Ball diff for the mini-t all that will bring you to about $190.

not even, zach!

the mini baja stock motor is good. i like it so much that if it broke today, i would get the stock replacement without hesitation!
instead of that trinity motor, get team losi mini-t oil shocks. they won't leak like the stock oil shocks.
