Wow so this took a turn in a different direction. If you are gonna scale instead of comp and your worried about always flipping that I would suggest a Deadbolt or Wraith. They both utilize the AR60 axles set which are wider and have a longer wheelbase around 14" compared to 12ish" for a scx than standard axial axles and offer up more stability.plus they both can go considerably faster than a SCX.
