I'm trying to decide if I want a slayer or a mt2. I only bash, which one is better offroad? Is the mt2 strong? Is the slayer strong? btw I know the slayer isn't a stadium truck but this is the closest sub forum.

hard to say got a MT2 I like it
its a like it or hate it truck as it seems(like most)
Never driven a slayer so no clue on its handling
MT2's decent in the strength department (IMO one of the stronger 1/10th scales I've owned)
only thing that sucks on it are the stock steering knuckles (aluminum ones are sold at thetoyz for $12 which fix the steering knuckle issue)
Also the lack of aftermarket parts (GPM is one of the only companies that makes parts) sucks but the HPI stock ones are pretty simple to find and pretty cheap
It handles offroad pretty decently. I've driven mine on dirt, sand, and 2inch grass and it had no issues with any of those (I was running masher 2k's on mine at the time)

I doubt it but can the mt2 go off-road about a good as your savage.

nope
I've driven my savage over a stampede without slowing down (my nephew thought it would be a good idea to try and cut me off, last time he tried that)

but then again a MT and a ST have completely different handling characteristics and design
My MT2 can turn near full speed without flipping (and I have pretty large tires on it, and its suspension jacked to max) where my savage has to slow down drastically or it will be on its roof.

I think i'm going to get a slayer because alot of the parts are the same with a revo and there's a LOT of aftermarket parts for the revo. And I love the suspension.

everyone i know who had a slayer has sold um or converted them to revos

idk about the mt2, i have the old mt electric and i love it just a bit more each time i take it out to play. parts support is a pain but what do you expect out of a discontuned rig

Found this today on craigslist in my area. http://onslow.craigslist.org/spo/1654443796.html
