Haha.... you guys love to make this hard on me.
I like the Revo because I had one. It was fairly inexpensive, very raceable, even stock (or with a few modifications), and was very durable. I bashed the crap out of it and only had a problem when it was under 15 degrees out. Haha The thing that is making me hesitant is the motor. I have heard of a lot of problems with the 3.3 and I would really like the reliability and nice idle of a BB motor. The TRX motors pack a lot of power for their size and price, but always seemmed to be a bit finicky and run quite hot.
I REALLY like the look of the LST2. I saw a couple at the track and they seemed to have TONS of power. They were quite durable and handled alright from what I remember. I have also seen and heard how well they bash. Plus, its something different that I haven't had already.
I like the 8T because it is both durable for bashing and extremely race capable. The downside is price. I believe to get it built up it would be quite a bit more expensive than the others. Is this correct? Is it kit only or do they have a RTR? How is the quality difference?
Muggy.... I know nothing about it. I just figured since it looked vaguely like an LST that maybe it would bash well but handle a little bit better. Not a racer, but a different flavor basher.
I know that I want to stay monster truck or truggy. I know that buggies are durable but I never feel the power or control through rough grass or really anywhere but gravel or a track. So..... given that any more insight??
