I don't have experience with numerous trucks, but I have an XTM X-Cellerator and have about 2 gallons of 20% and 3 gallons of 30% through it. Just in the last few days I took it out after being stored for about 6 months with some 20% Backyard basher in the tank. It started up in a couple pulls and ran great. I jumped the truck about 50-60 times in the last few days and I haven't broken anything yet. I say run this thing on 30%. Yea it'll shorten your engine lifespan but who cares, it's a very noticable gain in power. And I get 19-20 minute runtimes on my 75cc tank. This truck it completely stock too. It's quite a worthy basher IMO. The only ST I can compare it to though is a Kyosho Ultima. Whatever you do, just don't buy that one! I have 2 friends who made that mistake. One of them put over $1000 into it trying to make it better then finally sold it losing hundreds. The other still has his but barely ever uses it cuz it's such a hassle.
I don't mean to hijack this thread, but my X-C just started losing power and then a couple tanks later was going about 10 kliks at full throttle, then about 5. Am I right in assuming that the piston/sleeve are worn out? Just making sure. I've never gone through an engine yet. I'm not surprised if it's worn out because I've beat the hell outta this engine from the day I got it.
Long story short. I don't think you'd be disapointed at all with an X-Cellerator for a ST, but I'm no expert so go ahead and look at all your other options. And happy bashing!
