Hey I'm looking at buying a HPI Rush Evo or a Traxxas Nitro Sport. Which one should I get. I don't race at the track or anything just a basher. If you have any insight it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I would say neither, go with the Traxxas Jato or Traxxas Nitro Rustler. They are both super fast and super fun, I had the Rustler, rarely breaks and super fast.

Pfft rarely breaks hah...I rolled it and broke the shock tower...
If that's all you have to choose from, the rush is better...NS parts haven't been carried in a while I don't think.

Yeah, thats cuz you were going fast and landed bad off the ramp with the body off... I hit the steps and broke the knuckle, the rear shock tower a few times, and the arm when you hit the wood in my back yard. That was all.

Or the RC10GT. The gt or the XXXNT are the ticket.

I know the past 3 owners of the GT, I know that they all took good care of it, I think it would be great to start out with. As for HPI Ehh....
