I agree the best stadium truck for bashing is the MT and the kit is best as I do not like to do RTR to many changes needed and to much wasted money. I have the MT Racer, which was the forerunner of the MT2.18SS. I now have a MT 1/34 as I up graded my MT 1 Racer to all most eh MT2 SS specifications other then the upper deck and radio box hence I call it a 1 ¾. You just cannot beat 4 wheel drive for handling and pulling.
