    Cool to see it next to the E-Revo. Really shows how they took the styling of it. You also pointed something out that I never thought of. With it being the same platform as the slash 4x4, you already know what needs to be upgraded for it to fit your needs👍

    I just got a newer rustler 4x4 (not vxl) it came with factory installed front and rear led lights, the XL5 speed control and the Titan 12T 550 How can I put street tires on it, and make it to like 20 mph faster. Right now it’s kinda quick but I’m used to now and want to go faster. Any recommendations

Also better for the skatepark than the Kraton which is better on dirt. You should take the outcast and Kraton over to Royston bmx track as I’ve seen you go there in the older videos. Also if it’s not busy the Saffron Walden skatepark is also good and is bigger. Matthew

I upgraded to a 2 we Slash both great trucks however I prefer the rustler it fits my driving style better. Recently I've been thinking about upgrading to four wheel drive platform. And I think the rustler is going to cut it. However watching the video following only problems I saw was that the body kept falling off and God damn thing broke in half.

It needs to be def Traxxas as I am currently living in Bulgaria and here the parts etc. are only available for Traxxas… On my list I have Erevo 2.0 or Rustler 4x4 vlx. The price difference is not that big of the model so this is why I am keep wondering. Seems like it’s bigger fun with Erevo 2.0. Keep up with all your work and your Monster Track! Good luck

    I feel the Kraton isn't the car suited for your bashing style. You tend to do point and shoot bashing at a skate park (line up a jump then do a flip or something) which is why i think you like the xmaxx so much. It is powerful and durable but has shit handling so you can't really take it to a bmx track and land jump after jump and drift around corners like you can with a Kraton. A metal chassis is not good on a concrete skate park but it really excels on dirt. The E-revo might be similar but still wont perform as well on a track. You bring up Rich Duperbash and his Arrmas a lot and if you look at his vids, he is always on dirt. With rc's its all about terrain. The xmaxx is good for the skate park, the Kraton for the bmx track.
