I have had good luck with my associated car, never broke one in two years and I have not touched the wall with my trf417. The tamiya are just fine to me, but I seem to grow white hairs and have chit hit the fan every time I tried to take that stupid plastic snap in outdrive just to clean the damn bearings. Seems like the spec-r is just drop and play. Was mainly concerned how durable the outdrive is and if I was to hit a wall ( dog bone, outdrive, axle) is the carnage since there won't be any give??
