i think he is asking bout what truck to get, not what tranny ....

sq71....if you want scale and not a comp crawler the SCX10 would be best bet for scale as most go with it and hop up parts are many for it .......bob

I'll answer your question daddy-o Go with the SXC10 Throw a 35t motor in it on 4s and have fun! Then if you want to later you can put a Summit 2 speed trans in it and have even more fun A SCX10 is a awesome rig right out of the box. There are a million hop up parts out for it with a ton of support. It has one of the best scale chassis out there. And the potential to build off of it is limitless! So spend $230 and get a great rig that can crawl great and have plenty of speed.
