pro, have you read my lsp thread? I can't compare to a LSP to any other truggy, as I've never owned any other truggies.. I've heard it's heavier than other truggies available today, but I simply countered that problem, with more power. I've broken a few parts, but 30mph into stationary objects will always end badly.. so far, I'm more than happy with the truck, and I'd say it's my second favorite rc i've owned, next to my old tc3 rally w/ a lehner 5300 on 12 cells.
