ok post the pro's and cons of them here. It's either this or the mutilator for me. I found the lsp for 329.00 new in box rtr. I don't want the kit so don't go there lol
lsp - cemeb4dk - 03-01-2007
They take alot OF $$$ to make raceable. I would look for a higher end truggy used or save some more cash and buy something updated if you want new... The LSP will end up costing you mor ein the long run...
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-01-2007
wow that sucks. The lsp was one of the few recommended to me before for a good starting out truggy.
lsp - rocco79 - 03-01-2007
the lsp is leaps and bounds better than a mutilator...
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-01-2007
thats what I figured rocco. I like the setup of the lsp and for nib at 329 I think it's a killer deal. They are selling all day long new at 400-450 on ebay. I will mainly practice with the truck since I watch my kids on sundays. Of course toss in the occasional bash.
lsp - cemeb4dk - 03-01-2007
+1 to Rocco, but both are inferior to other truggies out there. With the release of the 8T and the xray i am sure you will see people selling Mugens, Kyoshos are Jammins to get the new flavor of the month.
I guse youreally need to ask what are your plans for it? race, bash etc. How much do I want to spend
Do you have any electronics or engines now that you can use.
lsp - cemeb4dk - 03-01-2007
Addicted if you are fgoing to use it as stated above the lsp will be fine. But if your just goign to play around the yard and stuff why a truggy verses a normal mt?
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-01-2007
all I have is some radio gear I would have to buy a engine pipe servos etc. Thats why I was looking for rtr and new. Don't have to worry about a half blown engine if I buy used off ebay
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-01-2007
I have a nice t-maxx already that I like to destroy. Plus I want to learn how to drive on the track...never done it
lsp - cemeb4dk - 03-01-2007
then go with the LSP.
lsp - Meatwad - 03-01-2007
you were doing ok at the party addicted
and u were driving a tmaxx so those things dont go around the track very well anyway
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-01-2007
I didn't drive at the party. That was hoobajoob lol
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-01-2007
I was pit bitch lol
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-01-2007
lsp--3
Mutilator--1
lsp - Meatwad - 03-01-2007
lsp all the way
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-01-2007
Yea I know there is a vote out there for the muti though right bubba lol. I like the looks of them. but I think I'll go with the lsp
lsp - FreeRideFrosty - 03-02-2007
I would vote for the LSP. I think you can get them fairly competative for not a whole lot of money. Couple of steering mods to get a little more throw, double up or upgrade the ackerman arm, etc. A more rigid chassis is nice, and I would say aluminum arms are just about a must as the plastic ones flex a LOT. I would definitely take an LSP over the mutilator, but if you are serious about racing you would probably be a little better off with a newer truggy. I love my LSP though. (Soon to become LSP's in another day or so.)
lsp - bubbaracing - 03-02-2007
Yeah I can't complain, that's what Joe had and i'll be fine with it:crazy: hehe I'd like to have gotten something a little better but me having to sell my toolbox to get caught up on bills sucked, but what ya gonna do. Go for the lsp, we'll see which one is better?! lmao
Matt
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-02-2007
hey dan it comes with alum arms. maybe I should clarify that it is the pro rtr not the sport.
lsp - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 03-02-2007
try to find a used lsp off ebay, they are going for nothing, hell dans got like 3 of them for the price of a STR kit lol
lsp - FreeRideFrosty - 03-02-2007
That is true. LoL In the end I will be able to have 2 really nice LSP's built up with probably enough parts to build a third stock one. I am going to move some parts around when my newest one gets here and then possibly put one up for sale either for cheap in stock form or a bit more with a BCE chassis and some other goodies.
lsp - AddictedtoNITRO - 03-02-2007
lsp on the way. now what parts should I stock up on? I'm assuming c hubs?? and where is a good place to get parts?

are king headz stuff that good? The price sure as hell says they are. Should I go with cf or like khz alum? cf is cheaper and lighter.
lsp - Ponch - 03-03-2007
What parts are you looking to replace?
