It's quite a bit worse than a Rustler in terms of CG and traction rolling. I've got both and my Slash is on it's lid far more often with my moderately powered BL setup.

Fair enough, I just thought they were similair in terms of C of G.

iv run quite a few packs through it and yes it does roll alot easier than the rustler but you get used to the handling after a while and can easily drive it without rolling
i deffinatly want to get brushless

im still leaning towards the mamba 5700 at the moment though, mostly because its waterproof which means i can go to the track and it doesnt matter if theres puddles or its raining

edit: and thanks for the link to the manual :)

You can run the 5700 in there, but the 4600 motor is a little better suited for it IMO. It'll run in the low-mid 30mph range on 2S and if you want more speed, just drop in a 3S lipo.

would the 4600 give more torque then? being a lower Kv
and also run cooler?
