ORIGINAL: R/C Lightweight

Any of the SC trucks can be a winner in the hands of a capable driver. They all have their strengths and weaknesses. I just ran a bone stock SC10 against a field of 6 other bone stock Slash and SC10 trucks for almost 2 hrs straight (minus battery swap time). There was no clear cut advantage. Not a single truck broke anything (we had some seriously gnarly wrecks), and the lead changed from SC10 to Slash and back a million times. I think this speaks to the durability and driveability of both. Anyone who says the SC10 isn't durable or the Slash isn't raceable obviously has no idea what their talking about. I'm sure the same can be said of the Losi and HPI trucks as well. I love driving these short course trucks, it's probably the most fun I've ever had since getting into the hobby.

I agree, having skills helps with any truck someone gets!

I'm really digin the HPI
