I've raced all of the top three trucks and am currently running a MST-1

The GT is a great truck for someone just getting into the Game. It's cheap, easy to work on, durable, drives well and product and aftermarket support is second to none. Almost every hobby shop stocks AE stuff.

The XXX-NT handles better on the track than the GT, but is more prone to breakage, a little harder to service and aftermarket support is so so. Not all shops have Losi stuff.

The MST-1 is right there with the xxx-nt as far as handling, it's more durable on the track, but not very many shops stock parts for the Mugen line. You need to have your spares in the box when you go racing.

Any of these three trucks will get you a kiss from the Trophy Girl, that is if you can drive!!

Chose wisely grasshopper
