well, today I saw the difference between a ECX torment and a losi XXX. On a tight SCT track the torment simply cant turn as well.
My and my buddy have the same ESC/motor and battery. But the ECX just wouldnt turn as well.

So now I wanna buy a more competitive truck. dont want a XXX, since my buddy has one and his does seem to break alot.

That leaves, SC10-blitz-slash-the arrma SCT truck.....and?

Here is my main issue, I want a race worthy truck that is not fragile. My torment takes a beating because all the parts can flex alot...good for bashing, not as much for racing.

I want a truck that has a "happy medium". I wont bash it, but dont want it to break every time I hit the wall.

My buddy's XXX has broken the front lower chassis plate, the servo died, and the steering links have popped of many times.....all within the 1st 6 lipo packs.

So, what do you suggest? Can the slash be race worthy...without buying a $100 LCG chassis? Is the blitz or SC10 tougher than the XXX? Anyone tried the arrma SCT on a race track?

oh, another one, anyone run the ofna TS2? I hear ofna nitros are pretty tough.
