ARGH YOU HAVE LIT A FLAME WAR!!!!!
for that amount you should be able to buy a savage 25, especialy as you already have the stuff to start ur buggy
I LOVE my savage, but thats just my opinion
There is also:
Tmaxx
sportmaxx
savage ss
monster GT
etc etc etc

lol, thats imressive, you would actualy have to be going full throtle into a solid wall to do that.
To be fair though, all you would need to get that running again is a new set of chasis plates front dog bone and some other small bits, so it wouldnt be to bad
If that had been a tmaxx the whole mid chasis would need replacing

RE: WhAt Is A GoOd M.t
ouch that hurts! ive hit things at full speed with my tmaxx and broken numerous parts, like bulkheads and suspension arms. but if your going to race your truck at your local track then i recomend the tmaxx because some tracks wont allow 1:8 scale for some reason. weve had alot of savage guys go home steaming because track official wont let them race. and just take this into consideration, the tmaxx 2.5 is faster, handles better and is just more competitive. but the savage on the other hand is a GREAT bashing truck if your going to just run around where ever. just my $0.02

Depends on where you are - the track i go to wont allow 1/10 scale.

THere are more parts for the t-maxx but if you get the savage you wont need to worry about getting replacement parts allthe time

RE: WhAt Is A GoOd M.t
There is the Cen Fun Factor MT2. It is only 1/10th scale, but it is faster than most other MTs. It is also cheaper than the traxxas and the HPI. It is as durable as the HPI as well. Parts may be a sticking point, depending on whether or not your LHS carries Cen. You can however buy them online from quite a few places. If you want more info go to www.cenracing.com or let me know.
