the genesis drivetrain isn't too good. the driveshafts are made from poor quality steel, and i am not too keen on their diffs either. (the gears have a too large pitch for their size)

Imo a savage is a nice basher, and i am hearing nothing but good stories about the Losi LST too.

The maxx can be made tough as nails, with the right stuff (1/8th diffs) Mike can hook you up with the stuff needed to make it tough..

Seriously though; ditch the large tires, they result in nothing more than bad luck.. They are drivetrain killers.

I am curious about the 1/8th diffs, but I love running a spool in the rear and wouldn't want to loose that option. Are the diffs you're talking about in the RC Monster store?
As far as the Kongs go, I simply love their size, appearance, and performance climbing/bashing. I know I'm asking a lot running these tires with this kind of low end grunt, but I'm sure you can identify with wanting the best of both worlds from your RC's.
I have already loosened my slipper a bit and hope this helps.

I've never done it but I'm going agree with the 1/8th diffs.


Also, I can't help but say ditching the rear spool would be nice on parts. I ran one in my Revo and hated it. It was hard on parts and my drivabllity suffered as well.
