Therefore proving older technology!

LST2 wins again.


LST2=Hulk Hogan and Revo=Barry Horowitz
HUH? The LST's technology is older than the Revo... the LST uses the same suspension platform as all other MT's.. upright shocks... connected directly to the A-arms... and mounted on shock towers... (it just has bigger ones).... The Revo has F-1 inspired cantilever suspension... the only one in the entire MT class... The LST2 is the same truck as the LST, except with all the "problems" fixed... and in a more race-worthy package. Newer technology? Nope.

I know I'm gonna kick myself later for replying to this thread but..........


The XTM X-factor has been around for a while and if that's not linked/cantilever suspension I don't know what is....

LOL... yes, it has a cantilever suspension... HOWEVER the Revo does not have a "linked" suspension.... and the X-factor doesn't have inboard shocks. There is a difference in the suspension. The Revo has the F-1 inspired, inboard-shocks... along with the independent suspension... C'mon 2D, I'd expect more of an intelligent comment from you... You know that there is a HUGE difference between the Revo's suspension and the X-factor's. Independent suspension trucks are almost all the same (other than the Revo, due to the inboard shock/cantilever setup) This "technologically advanced" conversation is getting pretty tired... the LST is great, but the technology is not new... perhaps it has a cool chassis... but the technology other than that is pretty old. PLUS, the Revo is a newer design than the LST... I think he was trying to get the point that the LST2 is a new truck... which it really isn't... it's just a beefed-up LST (with an ugly body, I might add... LOL) Don't get me wrong, I like the LST, but to say that it's got "newer technology" than the Revo is completely false, and you know it.
