I'd recommend an LST2. I do not own one but from what I have seen at my club they seam to be a good truck.

I also agree the LST2 but i am a little biased

Revo 3.3 may be ok. (i have no experience with them) but if a Revo with a Sirio23 can't beat a stock LST2 then i would suggest the 3.3 wouldn't be any better.

Just remember though that with racing its about 80% driver and 20% car.

i was looking at the lst2 as well as the revo 3.3 only thing i like about revo is electric start. if the lst2 had that, it would be hand's down. got to remember that weight not a option. i want easy starting and dont wanna have to cart around starter boxes etc etc. just a 7.2v batt and away ya go, less charging.

that is no reason not to get the lst2,especially since from what i have seen that they are stronger and faster,and overall better car
