I don't know about the rest of you, but it seems the electric-specific vehicles don't seem as solid or built as sturdily as the Nitro counterparts. My son has a Pede and it works well and all, but for a speedy and/or powerful R/C, a Nitro roller conversion seems to be the thing to do, despite the trials and tribulations of the conversion process. Of course, anything can be made bulletproof to handle high power with enough $$$...
