I dunno. The Slash is a blast to drive, even with the crappy stock motor. True, the radio blows though. The Slash already has some aftermarket support since there are a few items on the Slash that are the same as on the Stampede/Rustler (RPM arms/shocktowers, stock spur options, etc). The Slash platform has been around a long time in the form of the Pede design, so it works. And the gears are already metal, so it's BL-ready IMO. And I really like the body totally covering the wheels for some reason. Makes me want to get a cheap 1/8 scale buggy and modify it for the Slash body.
