My advice is to use the search function & read the many threads & posts in this forum about these trucks.

Both trucks will require tuning to race at their potential. I have owned and raced both the FT SC10 and the XXX-SCT. In my opinion, the SCT is more fogiving to setup than the SC10. Both are excellent trucks. The SC10 is better suited to smooth tracks while the SCT is more forgiving on rough tracks.
Either way, you cannot go wrong.

What do you think which one is better for both because i would race on rough track but I would bash in the forest where surface is smooth?

There is no XXX SCTCR you have to turn it into one making the truck cost 318.99 Plus shipping, but its worth it

You can order a brushless sc10 for not much more than a brushed xxx-sct. I got mine for $250 on Amazon. Brushless gives you much more power. You will want to get lipo batteries. Hobby Partz has Thunder ac6 charger and Gens Ace 2 cell 5000 mah 40C batteries at very good price. Have fun.

I watched 2 or 3 videos and FT sc10 was always a little bit better at the track but i don't now is it good for bashing.
