Or the ridgecrest. Although the ridgecrest is a little more crawler oriented.

For versatility I'd think about having at least a two speed gearbox. A racer isn't that good on the slow crawling part. |

Save yourself some money and frustration and just buy a set of used Axial axles (wraith or scx10) and a tuber chassis that you like. If you buy a rtr, there's a good chance you'll throw half the truck out within a few months. EDIT: Here's a good list of quality parts to run a fast Axial rock racer. SCX10 to FOFF how?
