I think short course electric is fun but nitro short course seem no fun whatsover. I tried the sc8 and the slash and the sc8 had no control off jumps, it jumps straight into an endo and flips lol it was also really loose. I like how it felt on tite small tracks with little singles but in normal tracks it was brutal getting threw jumps clean. The electric sc is where it's at tho I drove the 4x4 slash and the ae electric sc and I can't say anything bad, they both jump good and r a blast to drive and I love how they roll until it back on ur wheels u never have to go down n flip ur car over haha.
