Also, is the handling of the MBX buggy really affected from having the 10,000mAH lipo pack on it? Seems like quite a lot of weight on one side, and not enough on the other, lol.

Yeah that 10000 is too heavy, I will use it on my aftershock. A lighter battery will help the MBX as it needs a better balance.
The LS10 is a great truck, IMO. It is built solid, has a slipper, 54 tooth mod 1 spur that will last forever, it is thick! Shocks and arms are just downsized versions of the 1/8 scale lsp, plenty beefy. I would recommend it to anyone, especially as a basher, in that respect it is better than the crt.5, and alot cheaper. The crt.5 would be a better track vehicle, and has slightly higher quality parts, but not much. I also think that the LS10 is slightly lighter, despite being bigger. It uses associated 10th scale truck rear wheels and tires too. The fact that you can get a LS10 for 189 inc s/h from ultimate hobbies and sell the radio and nitro stuff means that you could have a roller for less than 100 bucks!! Thats a great deal to me.
