it dont make a bit of difference what size engine you run. its in the driver. i have a picco 27 in my lst and my friend has a colleri 30 in his mgt and i can smoke him on the track. just cause im more exspeirienced than him. oh and we drag raced the other day and my 27 can run with his colleri. im far from impressed with colleri engines that thing is hard to tune!!! bigger isnt always better.

No comparison. The Revo is a better Racer PERIOD. I am not saying that the LST isn't good, I am just saying that the Revo is a better racer. The same driver with both cars will be faster with the Revo.

no duh you beat your friends mgt the lst handles alot better and the collari .30 has much more bottom end and midrange and a little more top end than the picco but i still like the picco .27 alot but for the same money you could get the collari

I was beating up on a LST of a friend of mine's. He used to be an LST guy here in the forums...he's still here just not in the LST forum, because his LST could only break, and break alot. His and my Revo never cause DNF's like the LST always did.

Not on a straight track! I know, because I have raced them and won each an every time. Not all races are circular!

Can I bring my 8.5lb extended chassis SH.28 powered revo to this battle? if you still beat me ill throw in the Eb mods RBtm928 that Im waiting untill summer to breakin.The revo has been out about a month longer, they both had problems at launch that have been mostly worked out by now.Both take a little money to make them really durable, both are faster and better handling than the comp.

Extend a chassis on a Revo you no longer have a revo. I figured you extended it so you could utilize that engine. More stability. You got my interest , post a pic of it.

BTW sure i will race it.

both had problems at launch that have been mostly worked out by now
I only wish both were worked out. I am still working on mods to strengthen some areas, IE the new camber adjusments of the RPM's tend to bend. They should have used a higher quality of steel or titaniums in the arms camber adjustments.

On the other hand I can last quite of few reces without needing to make large mods or fixes.



The one way racing tranny I am hoping comes out soon also. This will make a improvement.

revo has been out about a month longer,
Not sure about this. But I did a post and so far the soonest I seen one with a LST was in November 04 and the mod number was less than #1000
So your saying Revo has only been out since Sept/Oct 04? Hmmm, I got to ck into that.

BTW dont take offense in my probes. I only learn by doing it. I just started into this hobby in 12/04 and with the mach .26 raced a street driver and was able to stay with him, and this was with no mods. With evey mod I make my truck just gets faster. =)

Do you have a pic of your Rextendvo. (extended revo) I like to see it.

Why does everyone say that. Everyone knows that a better driver is more like ly to win than a lesser driver. When people ask these questions, theyre clearly talking about the truck, assume its the exact same driver. They arent asking whos a better driver.

They are saying that the trucks are close enough that the better driver will win. The faster truck will not always win (Because of the driver). In this case, they are probably pretty closely matched.
