The Gator is a good car, I have owned one, and it does handle 'ok' on a track, but for bashing, it is ideal, and for your little trooper, ideal, and as you say, if you did get into racing, chances are you would buy a new car anyhows.
The Mad Rat, we got 3 at our club, and they are regularly breaking plastic parts, I didn't run mine enough to get to that, but these are young boys with stock motors.
