Hmm, then maybe a dropped buggy might be a better solution for me. I plan to run primarily in parking lots and such where cracks, seams, and pebbles are a certainty. I don't want to send my vehicle careening into oblivion from hitting a tiny crack!

After looking at the Associated buggy, I don't particularly like the motor so far back. Won't it have a tendency to wheelie with the weight there? That's kinda why I was leaning more towards a Jato - that and both my LHS have tons of traxxas parts in stock. I won't totally discount the Associated one though - I think one place nearby has one for sale so I'll check it out.

Thanks for the suggestions!
