The track I race at is almost all SC10 and a few Slashes. I have the only Kyosho and it's all a question of who makes the fewest mistakes. They're all good but if I break and don't have spares it's good-bye for now.
The Kyosho is sweet and requires very little to do out of the box. I would recommend filling the shocks and using Green Slime on the seals. The RTR tires are actually quite good and I use them in front with either JConcept Goosebumps or SubCultures or Pro-Line BowTies in back. The track allows that in open 27T/17.5 class. Since I'm using a 17.5 I changed the gearing to 78/24.
