In the last 3 years I've switched back and forth between plastic ans steel on the Buggy and Truggy. I've found it has alot to do with landings with brakes on or landing with full gas on that strips my plastic.

For what ever reason the Tekin RX8 esc seems to work best with plastic, stripped quite a few when using Castle MMM

15/45 is a sweet set up, I run 16/48 and DREMIL the chassis slightly for clearance, I've ran 17/50 on large tracks
