Ya know, i like that you guys are making long videos, but when will we see some good driving on a track, with some fast action. Im sold on durability, but the performance pretty much blows.

I watched most of the 1st vid. I was surprised you only broke rod ends but I'm sure you can expect more later on if you don't slow down on that street! lol Thanks for the vids!

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!!!!!!

Popa, im not referring to the turning, suspension, etc. Im referring to engine performance. To me, it blows... Then again im kinda used to my savage with an XTM pro, and the Mach .26 on this LST. I guess its just the difference between the big block and small block. Why does it seem slower than my 2.5 maxx???

Hey TopSlide,

Any chance trying to destroy the LST? I would rather have you spend the 6 bills to find out what can last on that truck. In return, after your review, I will beef up mine in the process (I guess when stronger parts are released). Please do all the LST racers this one favor. Hope you take my request seriously. Thanks.

That would be pretty badass if you guys got a lst and put the revo in a head to head durability test on running into poles and hitting huge jumps.

Yes you are 100% correct... the first 2 videos were filmed by my brother with a tripod and he is a lot better with the camera.... I on the other hand full on agree with you... I filmed the revo destruction and that was like the first time using that camera and it came out pretty jumpy... so if you don't like it then don't watch it... lol .. just kidding it blows but I couldn't even see the lcd screen on the camera with the sun and with the revo whipping around I was just guessing the area... sorry but we are not going to try to recreate that one... I promise not to film again... my brother is the camera man...

What was the point of destroying the truck? If you only point was to destroy the truck you could have done something cool like drive it into a wall full speed or drive it off of a house. Crashing into a parked car is pretty cheesy.

You've gotta be kidding me. Please tell me that you were intentionally driving that bad for durability's sake.

I for one would be super angry if my nieghbor kept driving into MY car! But it was pretty funny when the alarm went off.

Dude, seriously. Put a shirt on. And button it up, no one wants to see your hairy beer-gut. In fact, I turned it off after you two were walking around the house together half naked.


Thanks for the (Revo footage) video though.

Well 91% done (gayass dial up) and hopefully i will get to come back and say "I crashed my savage way harder then that and i havent broke it" lol, i don't know what i would do if the revo is as durable as you guys are saying... I just couldnt live with a traxxas product being more durable then my savage lol.
