Bahh, another Mini ST. Just what we need. I voted Revo. I mean, how cool would it be if the mini-revo had cantilever shocks. If they make a mini-emaxx, it will be retarded. I mean, why make the stupid e-maxx when you make the brand new, freakin' awesome Revo. And call it the Mevo

And it would be super boring, and people would say, "How stupidely unoriginal. Why buy that, when we can get a M LST, that's way better anyways."

I said revo because of the suspension but having a nitro mini-maxx truck would be great except for the weight and price. Very cool though.

i really dont like traxxas at all...only reason traxxas is around is cuz they advertise the crap out of their product. But if i had to pick i would say the revo ONLY because i would like to see mini cantaliever shock and thats it.

yes the CEN has cantilever shocks, but unlike the REVO, the cantilever design is vertical(the cantilever on the revo is lay-down), and the CEN uses 2 shocks, instead of a shock, and a pushrod.

Why the hell would we want mini traxxas? Everyone else has already covered most of the catagories people want. The Jato is nothing special anyways, its just an ST and the Revo should stay 1/10. So that only leaves a piecer 2WD mini Monster (what would you do with that?) and 2WD buggy (why get that when the AE RC18B would kill it anyways.) The Losi MLST is pretty much a baby E-Maxx, not a Mini LST, as its big brother is NITRO, and the Rustler..........don't even go there.

The only Traxxas I will even touch is the E-Maxx for Land and the Villain EX for water.

wow... you guys can be seem very, whats the word im looking for?, hostile maby, twords traxxas. wee all know that the revo kiks some serious ***** so why diss it. i have 2 traxxas trucks, 2 losi trucks, 2 associated trucks and 1 associated car. and i can find nothing terrible wrong with the traxxas t-maxxes. you guys seriously need to get over your "hostility" twords traxxas. we all know that the revo kiks some ***** on the track and in the back yard so why diss it when it a proven machine? it just makes no sense to me. i sortof do understand where you are comming from about most for traxxas stuff not being the greatest. but you can never diss the t-maxx, the e-maxx or the revo. t-max was basically the main starter in the mt craze and the revo is just a great truck.

The Revo would be cool. I'd like a company to come out with an 1/18 scale nitro truck. That would be even cooler.

wee all know that the revo kiks some serious ***** so why diss it.
I had the oportunity to drive a revo for the first time last weekend...i hated it. it was hard to control. slow, and cant jump worth S*** really didnt like any aspect of it at all...then again i am comparing it to an mbx5 prospec with a ws7II that i race so yea i guess there is a difference but still i dont see what all the hype is about, just my opinion.

If this turns into a bashing thread and/or continues in a bashing fashion like some of the MT forums, this thread will be handled in the same manner--translated: Posts deleted, threads deleted, and warnings issued if not more. There is always the "block" button and the simply process of ignoring a post if not the entire thread.

In other words, keep it civil or don't post.

well yea, you can make anything better after you put a bunch of money into it...but if i had to pick a mini i wouls still pic the revo for the coolness factor. It would be neat to have mini-cantaleaver shocks that absorb every little inperfection in the road i vote mini revo.

No more than 70 bux. I mean, it just needs a better pipe, different shock oil, and rockers, and convert it to bump-box if you want even more power.(not neccessary)
