which car is better for bashing in the sand nitro or electric?

[brushless losi]

i have seen many vids of nitro going in the sand but not really any electrics, which type of car can last longer running in the sand. i've read of cars being broken by the smallest thing, sand, becaus eit gets everywhere

i run my electric evader in the sand with paddles on the back and it does great..yes, it does get everywhere, but it doesnt screw anythign up and its a blast... try it

if you get the beach video at www.misbehavin-rc.com they have nitro and electric in the sand. Plus it is a cool video :D

I feel like grit would stick to a nitro vehicle more due to the nitro gunk/residue that tends to coat things. However, I've never seen a nitro run in sand personally so I don't know how much of a problem it would be.

I run both my electric and niro in the sand, a point I will make is no matter what the rc is a good teardown and cleaning is called for after running in the sand. I prefer nitro, just fuel and go. No changing bats part way through the bashing.
