i'm getting my son (9 years old) a short course truck to race at the track. he's raced his rc18t (exotek tek18 conversion) at the track for over a year now and just this year they stopped racing mini's here at our track in favor of short course trucks. he's still going to the track with this 18t but only during practice times. so he's wanting a short course to start racing again. anyway i've been a die hard associated guy since the gold tub rc10's, with a few losi's, yokomo tc's & hpi tc's scattered here and there. anyway even now i run a b44.1 & b4.1. anyway the thing i'm trying to decide is should i go with the associated or the losi truck for my son. as from skimming through the vs. threads i'm kind of leaning toward the losi. but please can i get some input from you guys either convincing me to get the sc 4x4 or telling me to avoid it in favor of the losi?

i'd really appreciate it!!!!!!
