Personally it's my favourite rc ever but then i'm biased.Also mine are along way from stock.The LST2 is out now and is a better package out of the box.They included some necessary upgrades like alu diff cases,high perf pads,secondary gear cover etc.It has new arms and hubs and new 8mm buggy style axles.I think 3 of us said to get the LST2 already in this thread.
Really the best thing about the design is the most overlooked which is the layout.By running a transverse motor and transmission the weight is down the centre for excellent balance and low polar moment of inertia.Also mounting a motor transverse(unlike every other truck out there)gives zero torque roll(equal and opposite forces).This is why in touring cars the modifides run belts(transverse Motor) and stock run shafts(less drag).This is also why i'm using a transverse layout(motor,gearbox and lipo packs)in my BL LSTs (for the weight close to the centre line and zero torque roll.)
