Slayers handle better from what I hear. Plus there a couple inches bigger, and 4wd always makes a better basher

Yeah the 4x4 Slayer would be better for bashing hey...

Or I'd recommend to go with 1/8 buggy, I recently bought a JQ Products THE CAR RTR and its really good hey great motor and very durable, AmainHobbies sells them at good prices and it would be cheaper than the slayer..

Get the Slayer... assuming your bashing area is like most others, dusty and dry most of the time. we had 2wd slashes for a long time, and wished they were 4x4 for better traction and control. if you are spending more time at prepped tracks, 2wd is fine.
