Been thinking about a MT
I just got back into RC when I found out a offroad track was being built 10 miles from my house. So I bought a 1/8 buggy but man is it fast. Are MT's harder or easier to drive then buggies?
I have my eye on either a Nemesis or a LST.
I have always had buggies and stadium trucks before so I don't know if I will like a big truck or not. Any thoughts on the subject.?

they are harder. 1/8 buggies have thin tires that will allow it to easily drive around tight turns, and because of the low CG, they are not prone to rolling when you drive around a corner fast.
MT's have huge tires that make the steering much lless responsive, and it will more likely roll when you go around curves fast. So you must drive slower around curves, while the buggies can blast right around them. Big advantage.
Also, believe it or not, 1/8 buggies are tougher than any other type of vehicle

Nemesis? LOL
LST 2. Nuff said!
Yeah, that, or buy a truggy. They are like MT's, but are way better at racing. Take a look at the Mayhem ST if you want a truggy.
But I second the LST 2 idea for the MT

I just found out that CEN is coming out with a truggie so I might hold off for that. Although I am watching some LST's on ebay.
