My brother has the rustler and I have an evader, and I have to agree with you guys that its parts break pretty easily but as for performance goes.... I can win a race with him with my eyes shut. With that guarantee you can replace broken parts for free until you get better. Im using a 19 turn no name motor and it runs twice as long and just as fast and he has a 17 turn. I just love my evader and might get the Evader pro when it comes out.
