RE: Best truggy what to buy
The mantis is more of a sport basher. Not much of a racer. The 8T could bash as well as race.
What you need to run......Well what do you already have??????
Hump pack about 20-25
Charger....30
Fuel.....35(gal)
AA batts for the radio....7-8
glow starter......15
and so on it just depends on what you already own
