any suggestions on which direction I should go? I am new to RC and have recently purchased an E REVO. I want a gas RC so to add to my collection. I want it to be almost bomb proof, easy as possible to work on and the capability to up grade if I decide to get into racing. One thought is to go with the Revo if suspension parts are inter changable. Any other suggestions?

I would get the Losi 8t RTR

Well the file size is to large to post so just send me your email and i'll send them all to ya.

.t includes

Remote and reciever
upgraded steering servo JR Z590m high torque metal gear race servo $39.99
I put Intigy msr 5 shocks on it 119.99 for 8
i still have a couple of the stock shocks
another full set of threaded oil shocks too $50 for 8
1/2 gallon 25% nitro fuel
1600ml hump pack w/ charger
1800ml battery for roto starter w/charger
Hpi glow stick w/charger

another set of tires and rims
roto starter
a whole box full of extra parts
dual disc brakes
Dynamite aluminum bulk heads front and rear 49.99/pr

Here is the big question. How much do you want to spend and what are planning on doing with it? Do you want a Monster truck, truggy or stadium truck.

I would suggest a Losi LST2 or if you don't want to spend that much you could get a aftershock. If you would like to check somethings out about those truck just check out www.lstforums.com

# the small trucks are T Maxx


# yellow & black truck is a MGT -mod with LST2 front & Rear Big bore shocks


- the truggy is a Haboo truck






hope this helps !!!!

Y not stay in the revo family? If you already have the e revo then it would make sense to get a nitro revo and stock parts for one type of chassis.

Thats what I would do. I've had two revos, the original 2.5 and the 3.3 they are really easy to work on. I only broke once...

I have a closet full of Savages. I love to bash them and do insane jumps. They are very durable. It may not be an option if you decide to race though.

Bashing--Savage
Racing--Revo

the suspension parts are interchangable in the revos and traxxas makes durrable products

i would recommend a hpi savage, which one is up to you, but i have some friends who own savages and they are TOUGH AND FAST! i own a wheely king and will stay with my electrics.

bashing savage for sure, and can be made into a racer with time and $$$, i love mine and you wanted bullet proff, i've busted almost nothing on it

the lug

mayhem st,losi 8t,mugen mbx5t

monster truck: revo platinum all the up grades are already done you just need a bump box and a receiver.

buggy: rc8
these are both really good trucks, i race bothe of them just about every weekend in the spring, summer, and fall.

good starter basher would b an HPI savage!!!
