I'd look at the SC10 as well. The Slash is fine but really it's a bit overrated and overhyped, it's still just Traxxas old 2wd electric platform.
no its platform is NOT old it has all the metal gears and rubbersealed ball bearings....SC10 would be great..BUT he would spend more money on a BL SC10 than a BL traxxas slash
