    The 5t is a 5th scale short course and the 5b is a 5th scale Buggy. Now HPI is making the 5b in a kit form. Would be the only way I would get a buggy is with this scale, since none of the other scales have caught my eye

    what is the 5p?

    If its an excceed, redcat, or some other off-brand car, get the hpi 5b. great performance, way more durable, and much better parts support.
    I reject your reality, and blow it up with C4.

    5T is a desert truck, 5SC is short course. 5B is Buggy. they stopped making the 5T.

    I want to get a 5B, but it doesn't have any of the upgrades that the other models have.

    The 5b SS still doesn't have what the SC has. Upgraded shafts, bigger engine ect. Which sucks becuase Ill never buy an SC. I don't feel like paying $200 for a body when it get's destroyed
