    My slash has been on the shelf for a while now. The SCX10 is awesome. I just throw it in the truck and use it when stopped out on the trails.

    My blitz has been sittin in the garage for a while, also. I haven't even takin the lipo out of it since I last drove it. Thinking of giving it to my nephew... Now that I can afford to buy race gas, I've been getting back into riding my quad. It's like a giant nitro rc that I can actually ride! haha
