until you run out of batteries than you get to sit and watch the nitros drive
and before I'm called a hater I own a brushless setup (just its not in anything since it snapped my one buggy in two), a few brushed, and 2 nitros (soon to be 3 once my jammin arrives) so I got plenty of each type
but yes if you hate tuning than go electric. Also the cheap $20 lipo batteries are probably assembled in the same factory, by the same little kids in china as those nice expensive $100 lipos
the pro's and cons hmm I did a 1/10th ST from nitro to electric the only con I can think of is if you don't buy a conversion kit (or they don't make one in my case) trying to find a motor mount and pinion to fit the spur gear is a royal pain in the ass. Pro probably cheaper and more durable than a dedicated electric vehicle (this can change depending on what you have and use)
