fast and tough aren't words i'd associate with the NMT, I have one and they're weak... It let me down again yesterday racing my mates GT.... The GT rocks.

If u want a MT then get a MT, the NMT isn't one.. its a 4x4 ST.

Get the Associated RC10GT RTR Plus. It's durable, raceable, many aluminum hop-ups, and theres even a .21 conversion for it if you want more power. It's $290, and the only thing you need is Nitro fuel, a glow plug, and 8 batteries for the remote, and another 4 batteries for the reciever pack. I suggest you get rechargeable batteries for your remote and NiMh battery pack for your car, and you're set. :D

Get the Team Losi XXXNT Sport RTR. It is better than the GT but that's my opinion and im a Losi guy so whatever

Don't just say "It's better." Give some reasons. I'm also a Losi guy, but the XXX-NT looks as if it wil break more with it's double deck design. Plus, since he is bashing he can get aluminum A-arms, shocktowers, etc.

if you want a mt buy the maxx, if you want nitro get a t-maxx if you want a electric get a e-maxx its that simple.
