As a point of order, their width is about .25" wider and they are about the same wheelbase. And I can't imagine comparing with the Jammin/Ofna offerings that the CG is lower in a buggy (Slash, yeah cuz of its design). Someone here posted putting a 1/10th scale SC lid on his buggy and it fit nearly perfect. I've seen one or two posted same elsewhere.
I suppose it comes down to what is powering them too; are the 4x4 running 10th scale 2s/3s motor/bat combo? Or are they running the 8th scale 4/5s motor/bat combo?
I've been looking into it myself to possibly get a Jammin or Ofna 4x4 SC instead of a buggy, but I've been hedging simply to see what Associated/Losi/HPI might come out with.
