I only have a few more months before the USHRA monster jam bashings begin and im looking for a new launch monster truck. I want something strong and fast out of the box that i can jump over 4 1:1 scale cars over and over again. Ive got a Monster GT, Savage SS, FG MT5, and Hotbodies lightning 2.

I need something that doesnt need a lot of hop ups out of the box and can take hard landings, IE 25 ft in the air onto concrete.

I have a revo and my friends do as well. We go cliff jumping with them and it is about 35ft jump. They are also fats aand of the box and can be highly moded. Like mine.

get the normal monster gt its the one of the most durable trucks out there and the origanal one is faster

savvy or revo, i would get a savvy but if your lhs is out of stock get a revo. the only problem with the revo is it is not a durable as a savvy which is the most durable. another plus if u like to do flips and jumping go with a savvy it will take a lot for a savvy to bottom out. a revo with the right rockers, springs, and shock oil will be able to come close to a savvy for jumping but out of the box the suspension is too soft for even 1-2 ft jumps.

yes but the savage is common to break shock shafts becuase how long the shocks are

i've never had a problem with shock shafts but they are cheap to replace if u do break one

for a stock one for a nitride they are 6 bucks a piece

Yup... stock suspension is just TOO soft for 1-2ft jumps.

Any feedback on the 2 truggies on top?

Yes, they are not for bashing but kick butt on the track.

get the savage because i never break any suspension parts or shocks. i have stripped the gears and burned slipper clutch and broke couple of dog bones, but you can always buy couple spare parts incase it break. thats about it with the savage.

Right now I am leaning towards the LSP. Does anyone have a reason why i should not get this. IE weak points.
