Should Rocco Buy a Revo

[Tex]

I've had scales.... I went back to MT. I thought the scales were actually easier to drive than a standard MT. I also had a truggy and definitely thought that was the easiest out of all of them. I also had a losi XXXNT, and I raced a jato once and took first with no practice (granted it was a DD's club race and not at Leisure).

Everyone is always going to have their own opinions on everything. I'm glad we can all share them in a civil manner.

Joe, I would love to take your K-car for a spin..... That would make my day. Heck I might even love it and want to go that route. Next time we are at LHR I'll holla at you about that (if your still down). you can take the revo out if you want ....Maybe your opinion on SMT racing will change after you realize it's not as easy as it looks.

My opinion on hardest to drive RC's goes like this, speaking from experience:
Hardest: Gas Truck
SMT
scale
Easiest: UMT

Now as far as setup goes, scale is most affected by adjustments.

I want to throw this out there...We should all be able to race whatever class we want without people looking down on certain classes, we are all friends, class raced shouldn't matter.

SMT is always looked down upon by every other class. I'm sure it's because that's where most beginners start off and they are hacks. Most of the SMT races look like demolition derby's, I understand that. BUT I really love what class I race, not because I hack, or because it's easier (in your opinion), because I just love wheeling a SMT around a track, it's fun for me. buggy wasn't as fun. The competition factor in scale is a huge plus but I just didn't enjoy rippin' it around as much (kinda boring IMO). I do want to add that I didn't race buggy very long (maybe like 4-5 races) but I felt I did get a feel for what the class was like in that amount of time.


To tell you the truth, if I had the time and money to race two classes I would still have my MBX5 and I would race that along with my Revo every weekend. I simply couldn't keep up with two classes (money wise) and I had to drop one of them, I chose to drop scale.
