I would say get a truggy, It is like buggy in set ups. But like Rob said with the longer suspension and bigger tires it is way more forgiving then a buggy. It seems the Mt class at LH and other tracks is dying down. Reason being I thik is that it is seen as a newbie class. These are made for a guy that can bash in his back yard but then still go to the track. Where as your truggies and buggy are purposely built for a track. Yes you have some that bash with them, but they are intended for the track.

I would look into a Jammin Crt or the Kyosho truck. The hotbodies is a great truck ( I had one) but it takes alot to get it up to par. The Crt Pro pretty much comes all hopped up and ready for the track.
