What should I get as my next kit? I own a Traxxas Nitro sport with some mods, but I want an electric next.

My main choice is an HPI RS4 rally, but something else has caught my attention recently: the Traxxas E-Maxx. Anyone know much about these? The HPI is cheaper and will be faster, but the Emaxx will be able to go more places, is much more capable and will probably be more fun.

My choice for an electric is because I want something mainly for the winter. It's too cold to run my nitro sport in the winter up here. Only thing I absolutly hate about the electrics though is battery life. Will the emaxx be a lot worse? Which batteries are the best?

Also, does anyone know how capable the rally car will be off road? Is grass and gravel and thin layers of snow pretty much all it will handle?

thanks!
