Default SCT CORR Truck Official Debate Thread!

Well, Lets bash here instead. Trade some virtual paint.

Losi Strike, Associated SC10 and the Traxxas Slash. (and all the others that will be shipping soon)

Which one's best and why?

The one that gets driven the best.

There all good Bring them all on and lets race

Just don't plan on winning unless you bring an SC10 with you since it is a far superior truck that should just be run in a mod truck class with T4s and XXXts.................j/k

Yes because we all know that equipment wins the race, not the driver. He's just up there wiggling the controls until the SC10 wins the race for him.

Looks like the dance just got a bit more crowded.

Don't think it's the Strike?

This was in the other thread:

I run a slash - (actually 3 of them more or less as I do the wrenching on mine, my son's and my brother's).

I'll worry about the SC10/Strike issue when they beat me, repeatedly. Ain't happened yet. I suppose there is some measurable way that one is better than the other - some scientific way to measuring without the input of a driver but until this turns into CNC racing - I'll keep what I have and be ok.

Most SCT racing is local - local tracks will decide what works best for them. The deciding factor is fun, repeat customers and growing their "brand". when it doesn't make sense to run brand x with brand y in the same class - they'll stop.

Unless it's camoed more than just the tape - I don't believe it's a Strike. Guessing another mgf is in the fray now.
