What budget do you have? Comparing that HSP thing off eBay and a Serpent or Durango is like comparing a Lada with a Porsche. To be honest I'd not even think about a Durango for bashing, yes it will be up to it but it is - as you say - overkill. The Losi 22 RTR is a good setup, but for bashing pretty much owt will do, I'd say a gear diff would be a good consideration as ball diffs are more a race thing and in a bashing situation you might need to keep faffing with it to keep it in good order. And yes, mow your lawn -assuming it ever stops raining - any motor in a tenth will struggle in grass that long.
