I second the hyper 7. I have one and the only thing that has ever broken on it was the front holder and front plate. It was a $12 fix. The only reason it broke was because I got a loose battery and the car ran away into a rod iron pole at full speed. I would consider a head on collision at full speed and only a $12 fix, pretty damn good. I have put almost 2 gallons through the engine and have no problems. I upgraded both throttle and steering servo, wheels and tires, and the radio. I also got a rechargable battery for it. Pretty damn good car for the money. I would recomend it.
