Either one is good, but comes down too personal opinion. I think the mammoth may have the edge in racing because of it being a truggy.

I have a Mammoth and as soon as I brought it to the track, I decided to sell it becasue it sucked *****. Please, for your owne good and happiness, get a Revo. I wish i got a Revo instead of my Mammy.

paaalese the mammoth is like the best racer out there for mts and some of the best handilin out there to id say defintly the mammoth at 52mph and handles just like a lst id say it dont get much better than that, now a revo yeah yeah good truck but not as fast as the mammoth and much more money.

mammoth is an awsome truck, t is built for bashing AND for racng. The REVO on the other hand is primarily set up for racing, go to the traxxas forum (if you dare[X( ) and you'll see that when it comes to bashing the revo is breaking into peices, so in my opinion get the mammoth, it is the best of both worlds. I have it and I have no regrets

my lhs carries parts for all XTM vehicles. That is one of the reasons i choose the mammoth. I don't know if you shop the same lhs as the guy who posted this thread or not, but in the grand sceme of things (out side your world) don't you think there are a few lhs's out there that carry parts for vehicles other than a tmaxx and a savage?

Sweet video, BUt not to rain on your parade BUT lokk at the rear of the truck, it is sagging ALOT MORE THAN IT SHOULD which could be 1 of 2 things, either they "cantilever inboard shocks" just arent cutting it OR it broke something

maybe it is just my vision
