Also thought about converting it but I thought I read something on this thread that said it wouldnt be ROAR legal...I might be wrong
You could make it ROAR legal, but you're going to spend a good deal of cash. The non-roar-legal comment you're probably referring to is the quick-and-easy conversion which presumably involves only body posts and a few other small things.
I have actually been thinking about selling my EB and getting the SCT, simply because I need more time practicing before I am EB48-worthy. Also, I am cheap, and i've got everything I need in the buggy. From what you described, I'd say that's a great idea. If you have the money, though, keeping both and trying to get 1/8 buggy going in your area would be the thing to do. Plus, your buggy would be a decent spare-parts-source in a pinch.
