You're right... the Aftershock is a de-tuned version of the LST2... therefore they're not the same... LST2>Aftershock>Tyco... there's a reason the Aftershock is cheaper... either way, it doesn't matter. this is a thread about opinion, and arguing about opinions is completely stupid. I responded to your question with a definitive and an objective side. I don't feel like I need to drive an Aftershock to know how it drives... it's a de-tuned version of the LST2... that's like asking me if I've driven a V-6 Camaro after finding out I've owned a Z28... I don't need to know how it drives... I know it's not as good... but the characteristics are the same... but to each his own... enjoy your Aftershock, man... no sense in trying to convince me of anything... 'cause it really doesn't matter.

I have, and an Aftershock.
Why are you such an angry person on here?

there nothing wrong with having a aftershock, i think its the better choice if your planning on building a racer. Thats what i started with sold the motor and radio on ebay made about 200 bucks did the upgrade kit and lst2 spur gear setup. I even sold the original arms and cvds and 420 wheels and adapters. stock wheels and some of the other stuff in the up grade kit for another 125 dollar profit. I already had a motor and a remote i could run on it

i made almost 325 bucks with the things i sold which inabled me to buy other hopups now i have a truck thats better than a stock lst 2

There isn't anything wrong with the Aftershock... this thread is about opinions, and my opinion is... why buy an Aftershock if you can get an LST2? I was going to save myself some money and buy an Aftershock instead of the LST2, but I think I'm much happier with the LST2 than I would have been with the Aftershock... this is an opinion thread, I've shared mine... and you don't have to agree. That's the beauty of opinions, everyone can form their own based upon their own experiences.

I'm not an angry person... nothing I said was out of anger. When something was asked of me, I responded with my answer and reversed the question. I have looked over the Aftershock extensively. It's purpose is served as a de-tuned LST2... if that's what you want... then the Aftershock is the perfect truck for you. If you're like me and wanted the LST2 for various other performance enhancements that the Aftershock doesn't offer, then the Aftershock is a bad idea. If I were angry, I would have used more smilies... such as... [:@] or [:'(]... maybe [] or [&o]... if I thought you were nuts, I would probably use ... after looking back, I've realized that none of those smilies were used.

Just one more comment from me if I can.

The Aftershock IS NOTa de-tuned LST2..

Change the FOC trans to one with high/low range+reverse, and the Dinamite .26+muffler for a mach.26+HT pipe, its now the exact same truck as the original LST... Same a-arms, chassis, rims and tires, shocks, diffs, axles and carriers, etc. Look for yourself, I did.

That is all.

So, the Aftershock has a lower-quality/power motor and pipe, and no hi/lo/reverse feature... and it's the same truck? That, my friend, is the definition of "de-tuned"...

By the way... there are other differences... this was posted by Sugafree using pics from 2DMaxLST when I was asking about buying an Aftershock instead...
