The Revo, it needs 2-5000Mah 3S Lipos to hit 60 and the rusty only needs 1-4000Mah 3S to hit 60. That and the price difference of the cars is HUGE!

my rusty vxl bought used for $225,
plus $50 for 2, 3s 3000mah 30c lipos,
plus $50 imax b6 charger
plus $10 Y-harness to run both lipos in parrallel.
grand total, around $340 for a truck that does 60+MPH and can run for a solid 40minutes.

if you set the suspension up right and drive it well, it will go where ever you want it to and handle well. i don't have an e-revo, but my rustler handles well when all four tires are on the ground.

no it doesnt, but handling doesnt really matter in speed runs. plus, my $340 rusty goes 60MPH for less money than an e-revo cost for just the truck.
not saying i wouldnt get a brushless e-revo if i had the money to!
