Default Starter Boxes

I bought a starter box from my LHS only to have the motor smoke on it's first run. It's been back there for over 2 weeks awaiting parts.

I am now looking at buying another box which I won't have to wait at least 2 weeks to get parts for and was thinking about the 1/10 duratrax universal box. It uses twin 540 motors instead of a single 775 motor so I'm guessing it would be a lot quicker to get replacement motors, not to mention parts from the states only take a week to get here.

Has any one got any comments regards this box? Is there a better one?

My current car is all shaft drive so the flywheel is east-west across the chassis but that will probably change with the car.
