RE: REVO DESTROYED? (Video)
ORIGINAL: OZZIE-SAVAGE
Why would you been bashing on such a tight street, and how can someone be such a bad driver.
Secondly when the truck wheels started to roll away after crash why wouldnt you move quickly to swtich it off instead of just staring at it or try driving it with broken wheels that was just plain stupid, almost as stupid as the driver.
This could be a good video in showing the dont of revo, dont drive it in narrow street with cars parked close by, Dont stand around laughing after you demolish the revo.
Also you can post this on a video cameraing skills website for the lack of skills, i cant believe the amount of zoom you used back and forth i got dizzy, also stay off the coffee dude you were shaking like a leaf.
You wanna post videos on here be prepared to be critised.
love the revo cant wait till i get mine.

you people are idiots. if you want to break the truck, why not smash on it with a hammer? at least that would be more theraputic

RE: REVO DESTROYED? (Video)
I have bashed my Savage ALOT harder then that and done some crazy **** and havn't broken anything major like in thatp icture. i fail to see how this is a super durable truck. I think time will show it as no more durable then a Tmaxx. As for ultimate MT>..........i reserve that judgement as well until we get alot more feedback. The Revo reminds me more of a stadium truck then a Monster truck...anyone else thing so?
ORIGINAL: popa71
Thermal how could you say the perfomance blows. These guys are turning at top speed and slamming in brakes at full speed. If you ask me the Revo looks awesome. There is not one truck out there you can turn going that fast and not expect it to flip. These guys are not driving like they are on the track they were actually trying to break it!!!!!!!!!!! My Savage has fliped doing much less than they were doing and it has broken more easy. I dont even think that truck was tuned for performance. It looks like we have a new durability king!!!! I actually heard they were awesome at the track. I will find out real soon because my Revo is on the way!!!!!!

RE: REVO DESTROYED? (Video)
what do they have to do to convince you guys, drop the revo from a frickin plane or somthing. they already smashed into a truck going 30 mph and tumbled around in the undercarage and nothing broke. if savages and lst's are so much tougher and you drive them so much harder then why not post some videos of the brutal punishment. i havent seen any videos of the lst getting beatin just some really slow track time, but i guess im supposed to believe its already tougher then a revo or savage, can someone at least post some lst vids that dont have them rolling around the track like an overwieght pig.

RE: REVO DESTROYED? (Video)
QUOTE TAKEN FROM TRAXXAS FORUM BY firemanglen
Last weekend we had a big 2 day event with 3 revos, 2 LST's and some super maxx's as well as savages.
Revos did well except for breaking rear shock ends. Took 2 of us out early on in the main. The third revo ended up with a clogged air filter and lost power to end up 4th. It was extremely dusty and that small filter had it's fill after about 25 of 30 minutes.
The LST's just fell apart. It looked like they just couldn't take the abuse. Wheels came off due to hex's melting or breaking, other suspension parts broke. When they were running they were lightning fast and handled very well. They were all over me an my Revo was the fastest one there. Durability was another issue though and I don't think it is there at all with the LST. The Revo also has issues, but they are small ones and should be fairly easy to fix.
Nothing could touch the super maxx's. The only traxxas part left on them was the body mounts. Everything else was Unlimited Engineering stuff and hot motors no less than .26's. I think one of them was running and RB .28. Very impressive, but they had to sink about 3K into them to get there.

RE: REVO DESTROYED? (Video)
it was interesting to read what you people had to say about this video. i can't believe that watching someone try to bust up a brand new rc car, by ramming into concrete curbs, stop signs, and real cars is entertaining. it would be different if a huge jump and an obstacle were involved, but running up and down the street for a half-hour, then bouncing around the undercarriage of a 4-runner, jeez. like i said, beat on that sucker with a hammer, and achieve the same results. this way, you don't waste expensive nitro.

Take your Revo like I did and jump it down a 25 foot dropoff, then tell me what damage you get, my Tmaxx recieved 4 blown shocks, a stripped rim, and all broken body mounts after the flipping.

no my point is ive done everything + more with a Tmaxx that they did and walk away, they proved nothing buy flipping (which dramatically slowed the car down) as it hits a stop sign pole with its body, or going half speed under a car, where the BODY catches underneath. wow amazing
