Default How bad is the Matrix's Drivetrain?

I came within an inch of buying one today then I thought I should check out some online opinions. Lots of praise for this buggies handling, features and finish but loads of complaints about its supposably woeful drivetrain. On another forum a member said he wore his out after 4 tanks of fuel. That.. if legit is terrible, worse than my mates Kyosho 7.5 (that thing used to fall apart on a regular basis but the drivetrain is still fine). Is it a major problem or has it just been blown out of proportion? Has Cen done anything to fix it?
I want a good RTR that I can race, but not one that requires constant fixing (F all range in Australia as well)

Any replies welcome.
