Default New and improved complete Nitro MT guide

Here is the latest Nitro MT guide. That's 27 Nitro MTs there! This chart is for anyone out there wanting to make direct comparisons and cost analysis, or just want some facts to tell their friends. Is it complete? No. Will it be? Yes- with your help.

This new MT chart is due in LARGE PART to Tamiyakid08's contribution. Thanks! Thank everyone else that has contributed too! I think the first chart was a good tool, and I think this one is even better and more complete.

Some quick fun facts based on the chart below-

FASTEST MT - XTM MAMMOTH 50+ MPH
LONGEST MT- (TIE) XTM MAMMOTH/CEN GENESIS 23 inches
WIDEST MT- TITAN TWIN 22 inches
TALLEST MT- TITAN TWIN/TITAN DELUXE 12 inches
HEAVIEST MT- CEN GENESIS at 17 pounds
LARGEST DISPLACEMENT MT- THUNDER TIGER EK4 S2 .70cc
SMALLEST DISPLACEMENT MT- TRAXXAS LINEUP .15s
MOST HORSEPOWER- CEN GENESIS 5 HP
BIGGEST TIRES- CEN GENESIS 7.5 inches
MOST EXPENSIVE MT- KYOSHO GIGA CRUSHER TWIN $800.00
CHEAPEST MT- CEN FUN FACTOR 2 $279

Dale you are always on the ball, good job! Oh and for fastest MT, there are ratings/rumors of it tapping over the 60s... this is the Giga Crusher DF model. About 3 different sites have this call, could it be true? yes, could it be a rumor after all? of course.

Excellent chart, very helpful and easy to use. Only one problem, it has already cost me more money as I found a couple I have to get. You never have too many R/C trucks. Are you going to do one for Buggies?

It's not a truggy... It's more of a deformed stadium truck with big wheels lol It's also discontinued.
Dale, i think the cheapest MT is the nitro stampede and not the cen. I could be wrong? You also forget the Ofna Pirate MT SPORT.

Dale if you have AIM, contact me at DeityOfCold and I can make a program so people can make choices of what they want in it and stuff to help them decide.... It's hard to explain but if you msg me on aim we can talk it over, and I can tell you in detail my idea.
