Might be worth looking at an Associated SC10 Short Course Truck if your bashing...seem to be a few about 2nd hand and they are only a bit dearer new than the LRP blast.
Good things about it:
shares a lot of parts with the same B4 buggy, and T4 truck, which are available from quite a few places
The big bodyshell protects the shock towers quite well, and looks scale, which helps keep breakage costs down.
You can do sliding and drifts with them very well, as they are 2wd.
The extra ground clearance helps over rougher ground, and the block tyres last a long time.
They also do a brushless 2.4 Ghz version RTR, which is also worth looking into.
Hope this helps!
