I use Trinity Monster Horsepower 20% and the truck runs great, has tons of power, will easily flip if I start off too hard. I have never timed my run time on a tank of fuel, but I'd think it is more then 15 minutes, but less then 20 minutes. But depending how hard you run it, I am sure you could get 30 minutes running easy. (But that`s not too much fun!)

thats good. Amazing this thing has enough power to flip itself off the line in high gear! I think Ill run sidewinder 20% How much harder is it on the motor to run 30%? will it decrease runtimes?

It will not change the runtimes enough to notice (Only slightly affects tuning). On the stock tank, figure 20+ minutes on one tank. People debate all day long on engine life on 30%. With an engine that is designed for it (Nearly any Big block... .21 or above), life expectancy will be the same as on 20% as long as it is cared for...Quality fuel with proper amounts of oil, using after run oil, regular air filter cleaning/re-oiling....the basics.

P.S. Got my RPM arms (blue) and the swaybar kit - SWEEEET!

Today I went to the LHS and all they had was a used one, but it looked just ike new, barely a scratch on it. came with everything the RTR kit does plus spare arms, shock towers, 4 different types of spring, 2 spare tires and rims, some driveshafts, threaded shock bodies, and a few more things. For $800 Canadian. $100 less than a new RTR kit.

This was the first time I seen this thing in person. It's massive, the shocks were even bigger than I expected, and the previous owner never even took it offroad or rolled it, it was perfectly clean.

I will put in my two cents on this as well. I got the LST for Christmas as a super suprise. I have since put a gallon and half of fuel though it and have only broke the same axle twice. I am not that easy on it either. I have since adjusted the brakes but flipped it on the lid several times because the breaks were so good. I have yet to break an arm or crack the diff case. I also climb hills that are about 20 to 30 feet tall and jump off them. The truck just does not break for me. It's really strong and super easy to work on and the parts are cost effective. They are not over priced like some other cars or trucks.

Thanx for your 2 cents, but its worth more here in Canada

Holy Smokes! You're getting ripped off in the Peg... The Hobby Guys here in Calgary are $749 NEW. Al diff cases are $12.99, and a set of threaded shock bodies are $59.99. They would probably ship to Manitoba. Or, just watch ebay...you can get good deals there too.

its $789.99 for RTR, 900.59 after tax.

I would buy the used one but I dont have that much money. Im trying to sell my X-C but the people who want to buy it dont have money either. Once I sell it ($375) 315 of that goes to my dad because he baught it for me and I havent paid it all back. I got a job interview on tuesday at Princess Auto, I hope I get it!

The LST is an AWESOME truck!! I have broken many parts tho. I have run 4 liters (little over a gallon) through it and so far i've broken 7 arms total, both differential cases, differential outdrive ring, and one of the dogbones!! LOL i'm getting the hang of it now, definately has a personality in the air!! I have the new RPM arms on the way.... hopefully that will slow down my breakage. I highly recommend this truck, but with every RC there are some "mandatory" upgrades depending on how you drive it. In my humble opinion if you are doing anything other than grannying it up the road then you NEED aluminum differential covers. My excess breakage is due to my WRECKLESS driving!!! and the wicked smile on my face!!!

Wow 15 min on a tank of fuel. I finish a 7min main on fumes with the large tank( 1 min running before start). I run the temp around 260 so I know I'm not to rich. Any help would be greatly apprectiated

Mine lasts a little bit over 10 min on the small tank.. Running about 250ish.

I get less than 10 minute per tank.
