Default What would be your dream SCT truck

With 4 trucks either available or announced the SCT class of models is booming. They all have thier good points and bad. What features would you want in your custom SCT truck?

Mine would be:

1) Mid Motor 2WD
2) 17.5 Tekin Brushless system to meet ROAR Rules
3) Carbon chassis with Slash suspension parts meeting ROAR dimensions
4) 40C Lipo 4000mAH
5) JConcepts Goosebumps with new Jconcpet wheels
6) Jconcepts Truth Body
7) CVDs
8) Aluminum Shocks
9) JR steering Servo

Theres no need for a 40c battery. These small brushless systems don't pull near that much. A 20c would be just fine.

I have two Lipos for my Stock Slash today. One is a 16C 5400mAH and the other is a 25C 4000mAH. The Stock ESC can pump 100A max and my 25C/4000 should be able to do that. The 16C/5400 would only push 86A max. This is only the initial punch not the sustained current which I think would be regulated by the ESC and Motor. I don't really notice the difference much between my batteries.

After all of my investigation on a modified truck and conversion of a 4WD to SCT it seems clear to me that the cost would not be worth it. I think I will just get a SC10 kit and update it with some FT parts and a good brushless system. I can afford that for sure.
