this is based on what i is see ,if your lazy like me get the rc8t but if you re that kind of guy like to spend more time on this (like maintenance) so i guess get the mbx6t , i tried my friends 6T & believe me i like it the handling everything it so easy to drive & too light but the thing i hate is that you need to always check the diffs., please this is base on my experince so i know someone will comment on my post
