no, it's not ROAR legal.. i'm not sure i've ever seen a RTR Nitro vehicle entered into a serious ROAR race to tell you the truth.(i'm sure there is) if you wanted to race this truck change the engine out and your good to go, it will hold up just fine. the only bad thing i ever hear/read about this truck is that it isn't ROAR legal.. who cares... doesn't mean you can't run it at the track and keep up with the 1/8th buggies. this truck is well built and i have not seen any significant differences between other trucks in its class. if anything it has more added features than other RTR trucks i've seen and is cheaper.

Status: offline 		yeah i dont think theres much difference either.. looks like the RC10 has a better pipe and a little different drivetrain..

Status: offline 		Brad,
So far I like the Evader. The RC10 I do not have experience with. But my service guy may bring his over to do a side by side comparison. Maybe 2 or 3 weeks though, as I will be on the road for 3 days then on vacation through 6/7 (can't wait!). Get to watch the fireworks from NY City (from the water on my boat), hit the beach, go to the Buffet concert. Now watch it'll be the normal Jersey weather and RAIN! Sorry I couldn't be more help with your choice.
Brian

it's cool.. i knew full well it wasn't when i bought it.. i might start racing by the time i buy a 1/8 buggy.. who knows. i figure once i can handle a ST with this much power around the track a buggy ought to be a piece of cake. probably not the case, but that's my thinking..

cooch, one main thing about the RC10GT's is parts will most likely be readily available at your LHS, any Duratrax truck its a different story.. granted you can order anything you need but if that isnt for him i would say go with the RC10 just for that reason. your LHS might carry a lot of Duratrax stuff i dunno, i know none do around here. not really a problem for me, i have more than one truck, one breaks i order parts and drive the other.
